Kill, kill, kill, find the door that opens for you and kill, and kill some more. Besides having a cool mesh floor, the 2nd level is a good place to find a couple of switches. I understand that they're very difficult to see on the PlayStation, so check out the northeast and northwest corners. Never thought you'd use that compass, eh? Just get inside the little area in each of the corners, center yourself on one of the walls in hit action. If nothing happens, try another wall. Who knew that you could let go of one ledge and catch the one below it? I had never done before that for some reason. Boy do I love the scene where you jump the bridge and you see the flying creature hatch below you and start to swoop around in circles above the lava while you are pulling yourself up. I think that was the single most impressive visual of the whole game. The water room gives some people problems. Figure out what each switch does and keep in mind that they are timed. The real exit is the one on the left, if that helps. Swim, run around, kill, all that good stuff. I liked that room where the three things popped out so much that I made a save of it. Nothing tricky until.... The room with the narrow, roller coastering path in the center takes a little bit of time. No, you can't get over those humps on the 1st or the 20th attempt at jumping over them. That ledge to your left as you come in comes in handy. Remember: pink, throbby stuff good, lava bad. More good old fashion running around. The paths are narrow enough to walk you through the sequence. Whoa, you're getting way up there. The muscle person thing is hilarious. I'll bite my tongue and try not say anything to give it away. Let's just say that the first time I met it I was kicking its butt and it was kicking mine. I just about died laughing when I figured it out (my wife thought it was creepy). You know you have to get rid of it sooner or later, unfortunately. They pull one of those forced camera angles to show you what to do. You just have to be speedy. Yes, you have to stop that lava boulder from blocking your path. (Or was that earlier? I need to write these things sooner. =OD ) Yeah, yeah, touch the scion. I dare you. Finally, you get to find out what this game is all about. Looks like Natla is one old villian.
