TOMB RAIDER 1 Cheats
Level Skip: Walk one step forward, one step back, release walk and turn around three times in either direction (left or right arrow), then jump forward (Alt + up arrow).
All-Weapons and Ammo: Walk one step forward, one back, release walk and turn around three times in either direction (left or right arrow), then back flip (Alt + down arrow). (NOTE: This cheat does not give medipaks. You can use a savegame editor to add extra medipaks.)
Alternately, beat the game and then start a new game without quitting. You should then have all weapons and ammo.
TOMB RAIDER 2 and GOLDEN MASK EXPANSION
Level Skip: Light a flare (/ key), then walk one step forward, walk one step back, turn around three times in either direction, then jump forward.
All Weapons and Ammo: Light a flare (/ key), then walk one step forward, walk one step back, turn around three times in either direction, then back flip. This cheat also provides extra medipaks. (Note that this cheat does not work in the last level, Home Sweet Home.)
Alternately, beat the game and then start a new game without quitting. You should then have all weapons and ammo.
Exploding Lara: Execute either of the cheats above without a flare in Lara's hand. Not a pretty sight, believe me.
TOMB RAIDER 3 and LOST ARTIFACT
IMPORTANT: Do not use the trick of beating the game and then starting a new game to get all weapons and ammo. This will work, but it can result in a bug in which some or all of the middle locations (Nevada, South Pacific and London) are skipped. As far as I know, this doesn't happen in the Lost Artifact sequel.
Level Skip: Draw PISTOLS.* Walk one step back, one step forward, crouch, release crouch, turn around three times and immediately jump forward.
All Weapons and Ammo: Draw PISTOLS.* Walk one step back, one step forward, crouch, release crouch, turn around three times in either direction and immediately back flip. This cheat also provides medipaks.
*Using weapons other than the pistols will cause Lara to explode.
TOMB RAIDER: THE LAST REVELATION (TR4)
IMPORTANT: Many people have e-mailed to say that these cheats don't work. It may have to do with some systems not accepting multiple alphanumeric keys at the same time. If they don't work for you, consider using a savegame editor to add extra weapons or ammo. Or, if you're trying to skip a level, you could download a saved game instead.
If you have trouble making Lara face exactly north, see the note after the cheats.
Level Skip: Use the compass to position Lara facing exactly north.** Then escape to the inventory screen. Highlight the Load Game icon (stone tablet). Press and hold the keys H E L P for a moment or, if that doesn't work, press and hold S K I P. (This is not case sensitive, but you do need to hold all the keys down together.) Then exit the menu by pressing Escape.
All Items (includes ammo and medipaks): Use the compass to position Lara facing due north.** Then escape to the inventory screen. Highlight the small medipak icon but don't select it. Press and hold the keys G U N S for a moment. (This is not case sensitive, but you do need to hold all the keys down together.) Then exit the menu by pressing Escape.
All Weapons: Use the compass to position Lara facing due north.** Then do the All Items cheat (above). Exit inventory by pressing Escape but continue facing north. Open inventory again, highlight the large medipak icon but don't select it. Press and hold the keys W E A P O N S for a moment. (This is not case sensitive, but you do need to hold all the keys down together.) Exit the menu by pressing Escape.
(**NOTE ON FACING NORTH: The compass is on the inventory screen. When Lara is facing due North, the red point on the needle points directly to 'N' and the compass needle turns transparent—at least it does on the consoles and on most PC video cards. If you're having trouble positioning her, find a ledge or block that runs east to west and grab the edge from the south side. Then either let go or climb up and Lara should be facing north. If you find that facing north doesn't work, you might try facing EAST instead. I had an e-mail from one raider who says this worked for him with the PC all-weapons cheat.)
TOMB RAIDER CHRONICLES
IMPORTANT: No, you're not hallucinating. There is no compass in TR Chronicles. So any cheat that directs you to face due north is incorrect. Please feel free to send in additional cheats, but to the best of my knowledge, these are the only PC/Macintosh cheats.
Unlimited Small medipaks: First, you may want to save your game in a new slot before trying this in case it doesn't work. Second, make sure Lara's health bar is less than 100% full AND that you only have 1 small medipak in your inventory. (Use any extra medipaks and then drop from a height or do something else to make Lara lose a little health.) Now escape to inventory and highlight the small medipak item. Press and hold the Look button (keypad 0) followed by the numeric key 0 above the letters on your keyboard. You should see the text under the small medipak change from "1x small medipack" to "small medipack." Press Enter, as if to use the medipak, and Lara should sigh. Return to inventory and the item should now read "Unlimited small medipacks."
Unlimited Large medipaks: Follow the instructions for unlimited small medipaks above, except make sure that Lara's health bar is not full and that you only have 1 large medipak in inventory. Select the large medipak in the inventory ring, press and hold the Look button (keypad 0) followed by the numeric key 9 above the letters on your keyboard. You should see the text under the large medipak change from "1x large medipack" to "large medipack." Press Enter, as if to use the medipak, and Lara should sigh. Return to inventory and the item should now read "Unlimited large medipacks."
Level Skip: To the best of my knowledge, there is no level-skip cheat for PC or Mac.
TOMB RAIDER: THE ANGEL OF DARKNESS (TR6)
I'm not aware of any of the usual PC/Mac cheat codes for this game. However, there are trainers you can download and detailed instructions for entering command line parameters, including all-weapons, flying and god mode. Tombraiderchronicles.com provides the most detail, so please visit them to download trainers or read detailed command line instructions.
