DARK MODE?

Bartoli's Hideout - Ballroom - Library Key and
"Moving Doesn't Change Who You Are" Achievement/Trophy

Tomb Raider II Remastered screenshot
Once you've cleared the fire trap, as shown in the previous section, turn right. The door ahead opens automatically. A thug with a gun and 2 more Dobermans (22-24) are waiting in the room below. You can kill them from the doorway if you like.

NOTE: If you're going for 100%, you may want to read ahead. The achievement/trophy "Moving Doesn't Change Who You Are" requires you to obtain the Library Key without moving the chandeliers. This isn't difficult to do, but it's easy to miss.

When the coast is clear, hop down into the BALLROOM and climb onto the first angled block.

Now you're aiming for the windowsill just above the secret compartment. Take a running jump in that direction and hold Action while in the air.

Lara won't grab the sill, but grabbing alters her trajectory so she lands on the windowsill.

Hang from the edge above the secret compartment. Let go. Then quickly press and hold Action again to grab the edge below.

"Moving Doesn't Change Who You Are" should unlock, assuming you haven't already explored the room and rearranged the chandeliers.

DARK MODE: I plan to add optional dark mode for these pages, but my current priority is updating the walkthroughs. Meanwhile, may I suggest a reputable dark mode browser extension, such as Dark Reader? (Download only from trusted sites, like darkreader.org or your browser's official add-on/extension site.)
