Navigate the treacherous Level 14, Atlantis, in Tomb Raider (1996). This guide details enemy encounters, pickups, secrets, and strategies for survival.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    From the start, pick up Uzi clips (1) in the hallway.
  2. 2
    Exit the tunnel; the first egg hatches a Mutant (1). Stand still and blast it with Uzis, side-jumping to avoid fireballs.
  3. 3
    Approach the next egg on the right; blast the hatching Mutant (2) while side-jumping.
  4. 4
    Repeat for Mutant (3) in the last egg on the left.
  5. 5
    Grab Uzi clips (2) and head up the stairs in the SE corner.
  6. 6
    Go west, avoiding the east side. Approach shotgun shells on the central walkway; a flying Mutant (4) hatches below. Kill it from the west side, then grab the shells (3).
  7. 7
    Throw the switch in the NE corner, then the switch in the NW corner.
  8. 8
    Return to the South end of the upper area. An egg hatches below; target Mutant (5) on the lower level if possible. If it climbs the stairs, position Lara on the central walkway for maneuverability and defeat it.
  9. 9
    Retrieve the small Medi pack (4) from the dark SW corner of the upper area.
  10. 10
    Head down the stairway along the W wall (N of the Medi pack) to throw a final switch.
  11. 11
    Return to the lower floor. An egg remains unhatched. To get all kills, approach and shoot the flying Mutant (6) as soon as it hatches, keeping your distance to avoid explosion damage.
  12. 12
    Tall Central Room (1): Walk onto the platform and shoot the flying Mutant (7) as much as possible. If it approaches, retreat to the previous room for cover.
  13. 13
    Secret #1: Hang from the south edge of the platform and drop to the ledge below. Enter to find a large Medi pack (5), Magnum clips (6), and Uzi clips (7).
  14. 14
    Follow the path and drop into the hallway. Proceed west, away from the shredder.
  15. 15
    In the room with the broken bridge, standing jump/grab to the crevice, drop to the opening, pull up, and throw a switch. Continue clockwise.
  16. 16
    Grab the 2 sets of Uzi clips (8, 9). Do a standing jump back to the bridge and a running jump/grab to cross the gap. A flying Mutant (8) hatches below.
  17. 17
    PS1: You can skip killing this mutant to save ammo.
  18. 18
    Remastered: To get all kills, back up into the doorway for protection (though it offers limited defense against fireballs) or jump/grab back to the other side of the broken bridge to engage it.

PS1 Save Crystal: Use Save Crystal (1) in the hallway. Aim for 90-100% health.

Trophy Alert -- Watch Your Step!:

  • Pull the underwater switch on the south wall. This opens a timed door to the east.
  • Swim back and pull out at the only possible spot. Pull up onto the taller pillar to the north.
  • Face east...
Tips
  • Conserve health and ammo; this level is challenging. Reload saves if you take significant damage.
  • Be patient and focused, especially during long sequences without save points (PS1).
  • Flying mutants are dangerous; retreat to safer areas to fight them if possible.
  • There are many optional enemies; follow the guide carefully.
  • This level has abundant Uzi ammo pickups.
