True Adventurer: 25,000 studs
Bonus Level Characters: Indiana Jones, Short Round
Unlocks: Nothing

LEVEL ENTRANCE: You'll need the Village Elder to open the entrance to this level. (If you need help unlocking him, check the Characters page.) Once you have him, head for the beach at the bottom center of the hub map. The cave you're looking for is just to the right of the deep canyon with the waterfall and two bridges. Use the Elder to solve the hieroglyph puzzle and open the gate so you can enter the cave. (Check the Bonus Level Intro if you need screenshots.)

Canyon with Pool

(Click any of the screenshots below to enlarge.)

Break up the plants and jars on the starting ledge for studs. You can't do anything about the silver boulders yet. So ignore them for now and drop down into the area below on the left. As you explore here, be sure to get the purple stud hidden below the and to the right of the ledge with the hatch.

If you like, you can take a grenade from the chest on the left and use it to destroy one of the 2 crocodiles swimming in the pool. You probably won't be able to target the second croc from here, but you'll have a chance to get him shortly.

. . . and throw it at the crocodile in the pool.

Push the brown box along the checkerboard tiles to the end. Then have both characters grab grenades from the chest. Have Indy climb onto the box, then onto the ledge above. Hop on top of the hatch, jump to grab the handrail above and then climb up onto the starting ledge. Throw the grenade at the silver boulders to destroy them. The explosion releases a bunch of studs and leaves behind a spear. Pick it up and throw it into one of the sockets on the wall in the background to the right.

Switch to Short Round, drop down onto the ledge in the foreground and crawl through the hatch to emerge on the raised platform in the middle of the pool. Throw a grenade at the second crocodile. If you like, you can then drop down and gather the studs on the ledges along the back right wall. Then swim back to the left, climb out of the water on the ledge with the checkerboard tiles and go back through the hatch to the elevated platform in the middle of the pool.

Then you can swim across the pool to gather
studs. Afterward, return to the left and
crawl through the hatch again.

Turn the crank to raise the water level. This also causes 3 small platforms to rise out of the pool. Now ether swim or hop across the platforms to the ledge in the right background. Smash the jars and plants for studs. Then grab a second spear from the rack on the left.

Hop back across the 3 platforms to the elevated ledge in the middle of the pool. Throw the spear into the second socket on the wall in the background. Then turn the crank again to lower the water level.

Jump down onto the ledge below the spears and sockets. If you fall into the pool, it's OK. There's a submerged step at the corner of that ledge where you can climb out. Use the spears to climb onto the ledge above. Smash the flowers and then drop off the edge and grab the handrail on the wall below. Climb to the right to get a few more studs, including a valuable purple stud. If you have the "Stud Magnet" Extra enabled, the purple stud will come to you. Otherwise, if you're agile, you can jump out into the air, snag the purple stud and then swerve back to the left to grab the railing. Then climb to the left, jump to grab the lower of the 2 spears and climb back up. If you fall into the pool, just swim to the ledge with the spears and climb up the way you did before.

Once you're back on the upper ledge, stand to one side of the first spinning saw blade, facing it, and run past it as it moves off to the other side. Repeat with the other 2 saws. Then claim the Artifact to finish the level.
