Last Crusade – Bonus Level 2: Beach Pit
True Adventurer: 18,000 studs
Bonus Level Characters: Elsa, Indiana Jones
Unlocks: Nothing
LEVEL ENTRANCE: Head for the beach on the lower right side of Venice. Use Sallah's shovel to dig up the sparkling patch of sand. Build a handle for the lever with the loose bits you unearth. Then pull the lever to open a trapdoor and fall into the Bonus Level. (For visuals, see the Bonus Level Intro and/or Hub Maps.)
Cave with Pool
(Click any of the screenshots below to enlarge.)
Smash the plants and shrubs in the starting area for studs. Step into the pool in the background and walk along the ledge near the water's edge to snag a hidden purple stud. Grab the gold studs along the back wall and then return to the start.
Switch to Elsa if you aren't already controlling her and jump onto the high ledge on the left. Fight the soldier there, gather a few more studs and turn the crank to raise a platform in the pool off to the right.
Use the new platform to cross to the area on the right. Fight the 2 soldiers waiting there. If possible, pick up one of the pistols they drop. Then hop up onto the ledge near the pool and shoot the soldier on the high ledge to the left. If you don't manage to grab one of the guns before they disappear, don't worry; you can get the soldier in a minute.
Cross over to the area on the right and fight 2 more soldiers. |
Try to pick up one of the pistols they drop. |
|
Use it to shoot the soldier on the ledge to the left. |
Use Indy's whip to yank the orange ring on the back wall. This opens the gate to the right. Run through and fight 2 more soldiers. If you didn't do so before, try again to pick up a pistol. Then go back to the left and shoot that soldier on the ledge.
Use Elsa to jump up onto the ledge on the far right. Pull the lever there to raise the ramp in the background, dumping a LEGO boulder into the pool and activating a moving platform in the corner of the pool just below the ramp. Still controlling Elsa, use this platform to reach the ledge in the background. Take a sword from the chest, return to the middle room and throw the sword to cut the cable above on the left. Doing so lowers the 3 gray platforms above the pool. (If you didn't manage to shoot that soldier earlier, you can also throw a sword at him. Then go back and get another sword to cut the cable.)
Continuing with Elsa, jump onto the lowest of the 3 gray platforms. Notice that the platforms are not exactly parallel to each other; the second and third are farther back. Hop up the platforms onto the ledge on the left where the soldier was standing. Take a spear from the chest and throw it into the socket on the wall to the left.
Switch to Indy, move to the edge of the pool on the far left and jump to grab the spear sticking out of the wall. Jump from there to the ledge above. Then whip the orange ring in the back left corner. This lowers a fourth gray platform above the middle pool.
Ignore the orange rings above and switch back to Elsa. With her jumping ability, she can easily hop up onto the lowest platform, then to the platform on the right, and finally to the ledge with the Artifact. Before taking it, move along the back wall to pick up the last few studs. Then return to the treasure chest to end the level.
