#REDIRECT [[Trapdoors]]

+

The '''Trapdoor''' is a special kind of [[Doors|Door]] found throughout the [[Tomb Raider Games]]. 

+

The regular trapdoor is opened by flipping a [[Triggers|Lever/Switch]], using a [[Key]] or sometimes by simply triggering it by stepping on it. There are also two special kinds of trapdoors that can be opened without any special gear, the [[Ceiling Trapdoor]] and the [[Floor Trapdoor]], both introduced in [[Tomb Raider IV: The Last Revelation]].

+

When a trapdoor opens after using a key or another kind of trigger, you hear a distinctive sound.

+

== Occurrence ==

+

=== Tomb Raider ===

+

The first occurrence of a trapdoor is in the original [[Tomb Raider]]. In the [[City of Vilcabamba]] you will drop through one, after using a [[Lever]]. 

+

=== Tomb Raider II ===

+

The trapdoor returns in [[Tomb Raider II]], in the first level [[The Great Wall]], inside the first tower of the wall. Here the trapdoor is triggered automatically; when Lara steps on it, it sends her down into a pool of water. In [[Venice]] you will encounter a set of trapdoors that are linked to the same [[Small Push Switch]] and function like a double door system. Another trapdoor is found in [[Bartoli's Hideout]], after obtaining the [[Library Key]] and performing some [[Chandeliers|Chandelier]] acrobatics during which you will open the trapdoor using a [[Wall Lever]] (also known as Big Lever Switch). Another trapdoor is found in the [[Opera House]] level. It is in the roof, behind a [[Swinging Crates]] and is opened by throwing a [[Small Lever Switch]]. The second trapdoor in the Opera House is special. It is not opened by a lever but by a [[Falling Sandbags|Falling Sandbag]] crashing through it. [...] In the level [[Barkhang Monastery]] Lara is tasked with finding a [[Trapdoor Key]] that opens a trapdoor that leads to an outside location where one of the [[Prayer Wheels]] is found.

+

=== Tomb Raider III ===

+

In the [[Jungle]] level of [[Tomb Raider III]] Lara will find a trapdoor hidden behind a crate which is operated by a lever<!--what kind?-->.
