Setting​

After barely making it out alive from the mysterious Temple of Ra, you feel the strange urge to find out more about the civilization that built it. You make your way back to camp, trying to forget about it all, but you begin having strange visions while you sleep. Visions of a magnificent ancient temple in the sand, visions of a treasure of unimaginable beauty and value hidden beneath it, visions of the race of people that built it. You begin to realise that when you stumbled across the temple in the desert, you had unintentionally embarked upon an ancient quest, intended to find the rightful heir to the Kingdom of Ra, and the legendary treasure of Ra. You begin to think that your visions may mean that you have been chosen to find this ancient temple, and you must try to complete the quest you have started and find the legendary treasure. You think that the best place to begin would be the valley in which you found the old temple...

Summary

Here is the sequel to my map Temple of Ra. The first one was an experiment to see if something like this would actually work, so I didn't really put much effort or time into it, so it was pretty simple, short and not that interesting. Immediately after I had finished it, I knew I could do much better, so I started work on this straight away. I feel that this one actually incorporates everything I wanted the first one to be, plus a whole lot more. The traps are more interesting, more varied, and more fun. The puzzles use hardly any glitches, will definitely require you to think, and are much more interesting. The map is a lot longer and harder than before, so you wont finish it within about 10 minutes like the first one. This one is not linear at all, there are hardly any places you cannot reach straight from the start, without solving any of the puzzle. However, whilst exploring the map, you will come across many different items and objects, and your job is to figure out what you have to do with them to reach the oddball.

Basically, you will find yourself having to explore the temple, trying to remember what objects you find along the way, whilst also avoiding the traps. Then once you have explored, you have to start trying to figure out what you must do to piece together all the objects and items to solve the puzzle. It's not easy this time .

Objective

Your goal is to reach the fabled Treasure of Ra (the oddball), by exploring the ancient temple, avoiding the traps and solving the puzzle.

Extra Objectives (just for fun)

Find all 4 bubble shields.
Complete the map without setting off as many traps as possible.
Reach the end of the map with more than one person alive.

Features

• A new trap and health system. Not all the traps will kill you straight away, so that one will take down your shield, two will finish you off. However, there are still some that will take you clean out... so watch your step (Thanks to BuddhaCrane for suggesting this).

• 
  
  A non-linear map. There are loads of different ways to explore this map, so you could play the map over and over, each time doing it a different way.
  
  [*]A puzzle that actually requires you to think. Hardly any glitching knowledge is required, so if you are a veteran puzzle solver, or a newbie, you should still have to think.
  
  [*]You can complete this puzzle with as many people as you want. More people may only make some of the jumps easier, you will still have to find all the pieces of the puzzle. Also it's often fun watching your friends being unsuspectingly killed by a trap you knew was there .
  
  [*]Bubble shields that are used to set off traps. This is so that if you know a trap is there, you don't have to try and avoid it every time you want to visit that area of the map. Trust me... you will thank me for this lol. (There is a total of 4 bubble shields on the map... can you find them all?).
  
  [*]New and interesting traps. I have tried to come up with ideas for traps that will keep you on your toes, some you might think you know where they are, some will take you completely by surprise, others will just make you laugh at the fact you didn't expect them.
  
  [*]Awesome aesthetics. As before, I have tried to make this feel as much like an ancient temple as possible, however, this time it's a pretty spectacular temple lol.
  
  [*]No way to get stuck. There will always be a way out of any of the rooms you find yourself in, you'll never have to end the game because you are stuck.
  

Clues

There are some parts of the puzzle that involve hidden items or objects, so here are some clues to help you find them.

The four kings may seem insistent, but two of them wear crowns upon their head, one shines with gold, the other of plain old wood.

Find the glow at the top then to the border, the stack of three shows importance in ascending order.

Once the path is clear, look into the eyes of the four kings, and you shall be enlightened.

If you ever think you are stumped, these clues might help you find what you are looking for. ​

It only looks smaller because I actually planned how I was going to build it, and so used the space well. The Temple of Ra was big but most of it wasn't even used lol. This is actually much longer than the Temple of Ra and it has more traps too .

Any particular reason? or did you just enjoy it so much you want more?

I may actually release a walkthrough to both this AND Temple of Ra, thanks to somebody who has volunteered to capture them and make the video. So keep a look out for that

 

lol i'm glad you like it . Have you managed to reach the oddball? If you have also found all the bubble shields, try doing it by setting off as few of the traps as possible... I would love to see a video.

Try not to think of it as being stuck in a certain room... because you can never get stuck . Instead, look around the whole map to see if there is anything you have missed. It's not about solving each room, but about thinking that the map is one big puzzle and you have to explore it all.

 

If you've managed to get the sword, then you have completed about half of the puzzle, but it sounds like you don't even have half of the puzzle figured out. What most people forget is that this map is not linear whatsoever, they think "oh, i can't get that gravity lift so I am stuck at this room", but what you have to work at it step by step. Once you find something you can use, you have to try and think where exactly in the map you could use it. If you don't think it's useful for anything, that's what the clues are for, because there might be a hidden item that you haven't realised is there.

It seems like a lot of people are getting stuck, so i'll give a list of all the objects you need to complete the puzzle, but not in the order you need them, except for the first and last one.

Flame Grenade (this is the first item you need to use)
Regenerator
SMG
Gravity Lift
Sword
Flare
Sniper Rifle
Custom Powerup
Soccer Ball
Needler (this is the last item you need to reach the oddball)

I hope this helps people

 

You can easily reach it with the sword, just aim directly at it lol.
