Tomb of Semerkhet - Secret #3

IMPORTANT: You must LOSE the game of senet in order to open the route that leads to secrets 3 through 7. If you win the game, Lara is forced to take an alternate path that bypasses most of the level. If you saved after winning the senet game, you may want to reload an earlier save and replay that section, or download a save file here.

When you lose the game, the 4 light blue tiles in the floor surrounding the game board open. All four trapdoors eventually lead to the same place, but it's easier to reach the next secret if you drop down through either of the openings on the north side (i.e., nearer the last tile on the senet board). Here we'll use the one to the northwest.

After dropping down through the trapdoor, stand at the top of the slope facing downhill. Save the game in case you miss the secret. Now step off the edge and slide down facing forward.

At the end of the first ramp, Lara will land on the perpendicular ramp just below.

Continue to slide without jumping.

At the end of the second ramp, Lara will take another slight drop...

...and continue sliding.

At the end of this third ramp, press Jump to land in the doorway directly ahead. If Lara falls onto the perpendicular ramp below, reload the game and try again.

Once you land in the doorway, drop down into the room with the climbing pole. This is SECRET #3 (33/70).
