Part 2

Master Part 2 of the Lost Ark walkthrough, covering essential items like the Whip, Flute, and Grenade, and navigating dangerous locations like the Valley of Poison and Thieves' Den.

This section covers essential items and locations in Part 2 of the game. Your inventory is displayed at the bottom of the screen. Use the left joystick to highlight an item, the left joystick button to drop it, or the right joystick button to use it. You can carry a maximum of six items.

Items are detailed in the following format:

• ITEM: The name of the item
• LOCATION: Where you can find it
• DESCRIPTION (SCREEN): What it looks like on the screen
• DESCRIPTION (INVENTORY): What it looks like in your inventory
• USE: What it's good for
• HOW TO USE: How to use it

WARNING: POSSIBLE SPOILERS BELOW

• ITEM: Whip
  LOCATION: Entrance Room
  DESCRIPTION (SCREEN): A long red angular line
  DESCRIPTION (INVENTORY): Slightly resembles a backwards capital "R"
  USE: Killing snakes, breaking through the walls of the dungeon
  HOW TO USE: Highlight the whip. While moving, push the right joystick button. You should see a dot fly out a short distance from you.
• ITEM: Flute
  LOCATION: Marketplace
  DESCRIPTION (SCREEN): A yellow diagonal flute located under the black sheik
  DESCRIPTION (INVENTORY): A horizontal flute
  USE: Immunity to both snakes and tsetse flies
  HOW TO USE: You should hear music when it's highlighted. As long as the music is playing, snakes won't kill you and flies won't paralyze you either.
• ITEM: Grenade
  LOCATION: A basket in the Marketplace, the basket in the Black Market
  DESCRIPTION (SCREEN): None
  DESCRIPTION (INVENTORY): It looks pretty much like a grenade
  USE: Gain access to the Temple Entrance
  HOW TO USE: Highlight the grenade and put Indy next to whatever you want to blow up. Push the right joystick button and run like hell to the next room. If you're too slow you'll get caught in the explosion and die.
• ITEM: Key
  LOCATION: A basket in the Marketplace
  DESCRIPTION (SCREEN): None
  DESCRIPTION (INVENTORY): Looks just like a key
  USE: Gain access to the box in the Map Room
  HOW TO USE: As long as the key is highlighted, the box in the Map Room will be open for you, and you won't fall while inside.
• ITEM: Gun
  LOCATION: A basket in the Marketplace
  DESCRIPTION (SCREEN): None
  DESCRIPTION (INVENTORY): It's a gun
  USE: Similar to the whip, except its range covers the whole screen
  HOW TO USE: Just like the whip, highlight the gun and push the right joystick button while moving. The only difference is that is has a longer range and a limited amount of times it can be used (six times to be exact). Buy bullets in the Black Market to refill your shots.
• ITEM: Medallion
  LOCATION: A basket in the Marketplace (see "The Solution" below)
  DESCRIPTION (SCREEN): None
  DESCRIPTION (INVENTORY): A diamond with a dot in the center
  USE: Use in the Map Room to reveal the location of the ark
  HOW TO USE: While in the Map Room, highlight it when the sun rises to see one of the mesas flash. That flashing mesa contains the Ark.
• ITEM: Parachute
  LOCATION: Under the white sheik at the Marketplace
  DESCRIPTION (SCREEN): A light blue square with a white "cross" in the middle
  DESCRIPTION (INVENTORY): A square with a "cross" in the middle
  USE: To prevent killing yourself if you happen to fall off a mesa
  HOW TO USE: While falling, quickly highlight the parachute and push the right joystick button. The chute will open and you'll drift to the ground. Once on land, push the left joystick button to drop it so you can move again.
• ITEM: Timepiece
  LOCATION: Temple Entrance
  DESCRIPTION (SCREEN): A green lopsided backwards "L"

Grappling Hook: Push the right joystick up and down to adjust the arc of the grappling hook. Push the right joystick's fire button when the dot is over a yellow mesa to travel to it. Falling off a mesa onto a blue area results in death in the Valley of Poison.

Valley of Poison: This area has the same layout as the mesa field but with green colors. Tsetse flies and the Man in Black are present. Mesas here are bogs that slow movement.

Side of Mesa: A large tree branch with a hole underneath may contain something interesting after falling off a mesa.

Thieves' Den: A dark room with "bars" blocking the view. Black thieves move horizontally and touching them causes item loss.

Map Room: Contains a map of the mesa field. Yellow strips form the sides; falling off results in death. A box underneath can be entered with a specific item, but careful positioning is needed upon exiting.

Well of Souls: The final room. Digging in the dirt mound may lead to winning the game if the Ark's location is correct; otherwise, you fall into the Valley of Poison.

Black Market: Similar to the Marketplace but with darker colors, one basket, different items, and a Raving Lunatic. Bullets and a shovel can be purchased here.
