The book was mainly a text only book. In many cases the words were hard to connect to the reality of the game. Two examples:1.Near the beginning of the Opera House it took me two days to figure out where I was supposed to jump to to get the ORNATE KEY. 2. In 40 Fathoms, I'm stuck in the section "Moving the Earth." The book says to "notice two holes in the roof ...they lead to different areas." Well my room has three holes, two of which lead to the same area. Also, two of the three are INACCESSABLE! One is so high I can hardly see it! No clue given as to how to get up there. Compared to the pictures only book I bought for the original TombRaider, this Tomb Raider II book is abismal!
