Level 2 starts off in an ally in Venice. As soon as Lara can walk on flat ground, roll and head toward the end of the ally. A dog will be on the other side so have your pistols ready. After you kill the dog run toward the opening to the left. Don't go through yet, as soon as you get near the opening, roll and start shooting the goon in the balcony (tip: try jumping and shooting, this will make you accuracy higher and you can dodge his bullets better). After he is dead go on down the opening and expect a dog and another goon with a bat. Take care of these 2 by back fliping and shooting at them and then jump in to the water. Swim under a door in front of you and surface. There is a boat (which you will use later) and a switch and a lock. Hit the switch and go back to the deck. Now go inside the little shack the guy was staying in and pick up the flars on the table, and push the switch to open a door on the celing. Climb the ladder and push the 2nd switch in the 2nd floor to open a door that takes you to the roof. Go on the roof and shoot out the window. Then go straight to the other window and shoot that one out (if the other bullet didn't). Now jump on to the little red shade thing and then onto the balcony where you shot the goon before, and get the key he droped. After you pick up the key go back through the window and turn right, and down the hall to the other room with the dog. Kill the dog and continue towards the other long glass hall. At the end is another switch. After it is pulled go back to the room where the dog was and shoot out the window. Now do a long running jump and grab on to the edge of the red shade.> Pull your self up and jump from shade to shade until you reach the small room with a switch in it. Pull the switch and dive back into the water. Swim back into the room with the boat and unlock the lock that opens the door so you can drive the boat out of the boat house. Before you get into the boat (or not, you don't have to) and drive next to the dock that is in front of you and jump out on to the dock and kill the gun man.(TIP: A method I always use is, instead of getting into the boat, swim to the back end of the dock > and climb out from there, this makes it alot easier to kill the gun man without losing alot of life.) After the gun man is dead pick the auto-pistols he droped and get in the boat. Light a flare and head toward the cannal, just as you enter look to the right and you will notice a hole in the wall. Jump in the hole and pick up secret #1, the stone draggon, and some flares. Get back in the boat and continue to advance until you reach the end of the tunnel that ends up at a water fall. Go down the water fall and jump out of the boat to secret #2, the gold Draggon. The bright spot is where the secret is. Get back into the boat and drive through the tunnel that is to the left of the water fall. after you get through the small tunnel, turn left until you see a dock. Keep driving along the side of the dock until you hit 2 huge doors. Jump out and go back to the dock.> Shoot the rat on the deck and then shoot the window, and kill the gun man inside the room. from. There is a box of shotgun shells in the corner that is hid in the darkness, pick it up and pull down the switch to open the doors in front of your boat and close the doors behind the boat. now climb the ladder on the deck to get into the next boat house. If you parked your boat in the right place it would have floated into the boathouse. Now go under water and pull the lever to open the boat house doors. Get back in your boat and drive out of the boat house and turn right. when this path turns again slowdown before you turn. There is a goon on a small dock that will shoot you at will while you can't do any thing from your boat. So align the boat so that you can quickly jump out and right onto the dock and kill him. (TIP: since there isn't alot of room to shoot the bad guy and jump and flip to avoid the his bullets at the same time I usually pull out my grenade launcher, from the 1st level if you go all 3 secrets, and blow him away with out taking any damage). Pick up the items the droped and get back on the boat. Turn around and go back past the boat house to the other side. Stop in front of the paddle boats and jump on to the deck. Climb the deck and jump on to the red shade so you're facing the top of the arch. Walk to the edge of the red shade and do a simple forward jump and quickly do a backwards jump. A dog and a goon with a bat will come out so you can safely shoot them and not worry about getting hurt. jump back on the arch and run to the area where a gun man is. Kill him and pick up his key and put the key in to the key hole to open the door. go into the room and fall down a hole in the corner and pull the switch in there. As soon as you do another gun man will appear in the room above. climb back up and face the gun man. After he is dead go back to the arch and look toward the other boat you have not driven yet. Pull out your pistols and Lara will point her guns at the goon down there so you can kill him easily too.(incase you have no idea where I am talking about here is a pic to help out) > Now get back onto your boat and drive through the paddle boats and hold the action button to make the boat go faster. There are a set of bombs in the water in this area, if you drive over it you and the boat will explode. So as you approach it jump out at the last second and the the boat will blow up the bombs. Get into the new boat and drive back to the boat house (doing this makes it easier for me to give directions). Now from the inside of the boat house leave it and turn right as you gomake the first turn between the 2 buildings. Keep following this path and ignor every thing else until you come to a ramp.> Facing the ramp press forward and action to go up the ramp. Just before you hit the glass jump out of the boat (while is is still moving) and you will be in a room where secret #3 is, the Jade Draggon. (TIP: that is the fun way to get it, the easy way is: you can jump out of the boat before you go up the ramp and you can just climb on to the ramp and walk up to secret #3 and then jump back down to the boat and then jump the ramp with out jumping out) After you have the secret and have cleared the ramp get into the boat and turn around and get on the small deck. As soon as you do the door will auto. open and a good will attempt to beat you to death with his bat. Take care of him and pull the switch in the room (be aware of rats). You should have seen the door open and you should have seen that door on your way to go to the ramp, so go there. before you go into the room park the boat next to the small deck behind the other deck the foor is on and then go in the opened door. As soon as you enter the door closes behind you. Pick up the Iorn key in the water and look up. You should see a small hole you can climb to. Climb it and pull out a weapon (I prefer the grenade launcher here) and kill the goon and the dog. Pull the switch to open the doors to exit this area. Do a safty drop and align you self with your boat (there is a bad guy on the deck now)> When you drop over you boat this will let you land on the deck instead on the water, where the bad guy will be able to shoot you at will. Now the odds are much better. Kill him and Jump back on to the boat and drive back to the area where you blew up you old boat. Jump on to the dock the and unlock the door where a gun man will be waiting inside for you. If you wait outside for him he will be much easier to kill. > After he is dead enter the room and pull the switch to open the last gate. Now Just one more task to complete! Go back to the front of the ramp and enter the room. You can drive you boat in here so drive to the deck in the room and kill the gun man there (he can get annoying since it is hard to quickly get on to the deck before you get shot to death so I prefer the grenande launcher), so kill him and push the switch. I would save my game here. Get onto the boat and jump the small ramp to exit the room. As soon as you leave a timer is set before the doors close so follow this path: Jump the BIG ramp (the one w/ secret #3 in it), don't make any turns and try to use the boost as much as you can (holding action), soon you will see and ally where you opened those 2 gates, go through there and turn right and speed toward the exit just in time to end this level.
