Chapter 11: Presidential Palace Walk-Through

Kombayn Nikoladze has returned to the Georgian presidential palace in order to retrieve a weapon known only as "The Ark." The great risk involved in Nikoladze's personal return to Tbilisi suggests its enormous value. Any threat posed by Nikoladze or the Ark must be dealt with.

Objective: Recover the Ark interrogation file--the record of an interrogation conducted by Georgian agents representing current Georgian President Crustaus. The file details an interrogation of one of Nikoladze's high-ranking mercenaries, possibly revealing the identity of the Ark.

You begin on the side of a mountain with the presidential palace high above. Watch your step because it's a long way down. To reach the high ledge in front of you, perform a double jump off the mountain wall. Pull yourself onto the ledge. Drop down on the other side so Sam hangs on. Drop and grab onto two ledges below the one you're currently hanging on.

The path to the palace is a difficult one--Sam must traverse a series of jump-and-shimmy puzzles.

Pull up onto the next ledge. Perform a double jump off the side of the next ledge to reach the pipe against the mountain. Ascend the pipe to its peak. Drop off to the right and grab onto the next ledge. Pull yourself up. Leap up to the pipe fixed to the mountainside. Shimmy to the right and drop down on the next ledge. Hop up to the next pipe and shimmy to the right until the ledge is below you. Drop down and shimmy to the right around the corner.

Shimmy as far right as possible then leap off to the right and grab hold of the ledge. Pull yourself up. Although it appears daunting, it's possible to make the leap to the next ledge. Perform a running jump; Sam grabs the next platform. Pull him up. Make the leap to the next ledge; it's hard to see but just perform a running jump and you'll make it. Drop off the right of this ledge so Sam hangs on to the side. Shimmy to the right around the obstruction. Pull him up on the other side. Save your game at the checkpoint.
