Chamber of Tulun (1st)
Items: 10
Kills: 6
If you're unsure of your objective this first time at the Chambers of Tulun, you might find yourself wandering aimlessly, so here are some hints to get you going.
Preemptive Strike
When you first arrive at the Chambers of Tulun, you'll need to take out a few enemies so that you won't get harassed by them later. Interestingly, most of this level is just a clearing out of enemies so that you can move on.
Floor Plans
Enter the building at the bottom of the steep hill that you first drove down through the small opening. After you've collected up the goodies, you will be ready to explore the rest of the building.
Where are the Stairs?
If only someone had simply put a flight of stairs in this building. Well, no such luck. The path to the upper level is quite roundabout, and will involve a block beside the entrance, the ledge between the first vestibule and the main chamber, a crevice, a column with ladders on three sides, and then a shaft to the upper level.
Finding Purpose
Eventually you'll find your way to the upper level of the building where you'll find a lever that temporarily closes both the front and back doors to the building. If you wait around long enough, the doors will reopen automatically, or you can reset the lever to open the doors. There is also a rope that you can use to swing over to the platform near the front entrance. A chute there will dump you out back in front of the building. So what's the point? Well, if you head out the back door and turn left, you'll find a good reason for what all the fancy apparatus is for.
Buying Time
If you've found the mechanical minotaur then you've probably figured out what the doors are for. You need to turn the wheel near where you first found the minotaur to open a wooden gate near the wheel. Be aware that the doors trap the minotaur just barely long enough for you to jump the bike over the pit and open the wooden gate so do everything you can to shorten the amount of time it takes to get from trapping the minotaur to opening the wooden gate.
Gripping
You may find that climbing up the shaft can be difficult if the minotaur keeps knocking you off the ladder. The trick is to climb up using just your hands.
