Hall of Seasons - Furnace Room Back to Main Area

After activating the infernal machine in the FURNACE ROOM, as shown in the previous section, Lara returns up the stairs to the BASEMENT OF DOOM. If you've been following this walkthrough and want all pickups, head to the right.

Take a running jump across a lava pit. Run forward, then left, into the AIR PASSAGE to avoid the rolling spiked wheel. (Or move near either side wall and duck to avoid the roller.)

Pick up a large health pack (6) in the passageway. Then return to the trap ring and continue to the left.

Walk to the edge of the next lava pit. Take a standing jump and grab the ledge below the giant hammer block. Pull up but don't run forward (obviously).

Wait for the block to pound down, then start running at it.

As it's rising, you should be able to run under it before it comes down again. Stop just beyond the lava pits to avoid running on into the claw-shaped blades.

To clear them, run through just as the blades begin to retract.

Then move toward either wall and stop. The next set of vertical blades open like flowers, slicing as Lara passes by.

Walk through carefully, staying as far from each blade as you can. Or run past along the wall before the blades can fully extend.

Next comes a pair of vertical claws. Step forward slowly to activate them. Then run through as the blades begin to retract. The ELEVATOR is just beyond the claw trap on the left.

Go in and pull the chain to raise the elevator.

When it pauses between floors, turn around to find bandages (7) and V-Packer shells (8) in a small alcove. Then pull the chain again to ascend to the MAIN ROOM.

The gates open as you approach.
