Angkor Wat
Items: 11
Kills: 0
Surely you're not looking for hints for Angkor Wat with Werner Von Croy leading you through each step? Well, we do have a few hints for you.
Manditory Training
The previous Tomb Raider games provided an optional training level, which has been located in Lara Croft's estate in Surrey, England. In The Last Revelation, the training level is manditory, but it can be fun too. Novices should follow Von Croy's direction without straying, while seasoned tomb raiders can attempt to locate all eight secrets. Your reward for finding all eight secrets will be a much tougher next level.
Sampling
If you want to try both the virtuous (easy) path and the heretical (hard) paths, we stronly recommend that you save just before picking up the eighth secret. You can reload that savegame, ignore the eighth skull, and try the virtuous path or pick it up to play the heretical path.
Tips from Tarzan
Rope swinging may be one of the hardest of Lara's new skills to master. The rope swing in this level is but a sample of what's to come. The most important thing that you need to know is that the sprint key causes Lara to swing, but there are a few other tips you should remember.

Another obvious point, but one worth mentioning is that swinging near the bottom of the rope will allow Lara to travel further than if she was higher up on the rope. When distance is a concern, slide down to the bottom of the rope before swinging.

In order to swing really far, swing once, and wait until Lara wraps her legs around the rope again, and when she is at the apex of her back-swing, swing a second time.

The final thing to remember is that, when Lara releases from the rope, she will drop practically straight down, whereas if you press jump, she will somehow "leap" off of the rope. This allows Lara to cover far more distance than merely letting go. Certainly all this violates the laws of physics, but hey, it's just a game and you gotta play by the rules.
