If
you restart from the Checkpoint you’ll have to stomp the attacking Zombie
again into the Abyss where he belongs.
The
walkway you are standing on is L-shaped so there is only one way to go: go
to the corner and turn right into a short Hallway leading to the 5th
Room.
As
soon as you approach the Room another Zombie is materializing but with a stomp
or two you can blast him off into the acid pool where his rotten face will be
taken care of.

Kick the Zombie into the beauty parlor
You
see a grapple sign on top of the screen so press blue to grapple on a ring on
the opposite wall.

Grapple on the ring
Run/jump
off the ledge (hanging from the cable) towards the opposite wall. Climb up the
cable until Lara’s feet are touching the wall where it is bending forward.
Notice a cornering narrow ledge on the left wall.


Run/jump to the wall

The correct position
Start
wall running from left to right until your reach enough height to jump left to
the cornering narrow ledge. Shimmy left and prepare a sideward jump left past
the broken section of the narrow ledge.

Jump now!

Prepare a left sideward jump
Notice
a narrow ledge on the cornering wall but also an opening in the wall above. Jump
to the opening and pull up

The opening above and the left narrow ledge

Jump up

Pull up
The
opening is the beginning of a tunnel. Follow the tunnel until Room 6 comes in
sight. Walk slowly to the edge from the left side until Lara hangs from the
straight section of the edge. Notice a narrow ledge below her.

The tunnel leads to Room 6

Hanging from the edge
Drop
to the narrow ledge. There are narrow ledges in the left corner. Shimmy left and
prepare a side jump to the cornering narrow ledge.

Hanging from the narrow ledge

Prepare a left side jump
Jump
to the narrow ledge. Below Lara there is an L-shaped narrow ledge in the corner
and left of it you see part of a full ledge that comes out of the wall like a
tongue. You cannot reach that ledge from the narrow ledge below (you’ll end up
in the acid pool). Shimmy left and prepare a side jump to the ledge from this
narrow ledge.

The “tongue” and the L-shaped narrow ledge

Prepare a left side
jump
Jump
to the ledge and pick up your 28th Treasure (I think I also heard an
Autosave ping here).

Your 28th Treasure lying on the ledge
Have
a look around here. There’s nothing in the 6th Room beside this
acid pool and some rough walls. In order to return to the tunnel you now need
the L-shaped narrow ledge in the corner. Run/jump to it. Shimmy left around the
corner and vault up to the higher narrow ledge. Shimmy right and prepare a
backward jump to the narrow ledge under the tunnel.

Run/jump to the L-shaped ledge

Shimmy left around the corner

Jump up to the upper narrow ledge preparing a backward jump
Jump
and shimmy right like on the screenshot and jump from this position to the edge
of the tunnel entrance. Pull up.

Shimmy to the correct position

Jump to the straight edge of the entrance

Pull up
Return
to Room 5 through the tunnel and when arriving slowly walk left to hang from the
straight half of the edge. Drop down to the narrow ledge below and shimmy to the
left where you may now prepare a sideward jump to the cornering narrow ledge you
saw before entering the tunnel to Room 6.

Hanging from the straight part of the tunnel’s edge

Drop down to the narrow ledge

Prepare a left sideward jump
Jump to the cornering ledge and shimmy all the way to the left until you hang above the hallway. Let go to the hallway. Lara will take a little damage but she’s used to more...

Jump to the narrow ledge

Shimmy all the way left

Drop to the floor...
ouch!
So
your visit to Rooms 5 and 6 had only one purpose: collecting
Go out and follow left on the L-shaped walkway towards the wall until you see a grapple sign appearing. Grapple on the ring. Jump to the wall and press forward to wall run to the ledge on the opposite side.

Grapple on the wall ring

Jump to the wall


Jump to the ledge from here

Land
on the opposite ledge and find a Health Potion
Turn
right and jump to the L-shaped ledge.

Turn right to see the L-shape ledge

Jump to it
If
you turn around the corner a giant spider will attack. Shoot at it, jump over it
and run into the Hallway. Quickly turn around and focus the camera behind
Lara’s back. Keep shooting the giant from here without the risk to fall from
the walkway.

A giant spider will surprise you when turning around the corner

Kill it from the Hallway side
Continue
through the Hallway until you hear an Autosave Ping by the entrance of the 7th
Room.
