Antarctica - RX Tech Compound (part 5)

Exit the GENERATOR SHED into another open area. If you don't care about the developing story, you can skip this next bit and head into the tunnel on the left. Otherwise, go past the open flame into the ruined building ahead. This looks like a CANTEEN, where the RX Tech crew may have enjoyed meals before something went very wrong.

Explore inside cautiously. In the back room, around the corner to the left...

...you'll meet a mutated crewman who'll spew toxic green gas before dying. Quickly hop away before he can poison Lara. As with snake venom, if Lara is poisoned by the vapor, the health bar will flash green, and you'll need to use a medi pack.

NOTE: This mutant counts as a hazard rather than an enemy, since he dies without any help from Lara.

Exit the CANTEEN on the right side, when facing the open flame and GENERATOR SHED.

Follow the ice tunnel directly ahead to emerge near a KENNEL (shown at the top right corner of the COMPOUND MAP).

In the KENNEL area, press the button on the fence to open the cage door...

...and shoot the dog that charges out.

NOTE: If you press the button to open the cage and it doesn't work, then you still need to turn on the generators. Check the main walkthrough for details.

Enter the cage and press the second button on the fence between the two cages to open the door there. Put down those two dogs.

Then go into the second cage and press the third button to open the door into the building.

A fourth dog guards the office inside.

You can also find Uzi clips in the alcove in the near right corner and the GATE CONTROL KEY on a low platform.

Another armed techie will come in to investigate when you take the key.
