Follow our Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception walkthrough for Chapter 21, 'The Atlantis of the Sands,' to find all treasures and navigate through the city of brass, past, and Djinn.
Walkthrough
- 1Head down the grand staircase and turn left at the fork to find the Bronze Man of Nashqum overlooking the city of brass.
- 2Go back up and down the other side, hugging the left railing to find a gap to jump to a tower for the Sabaeam Alabaster Stele.
- 3Jump back to the staircase and continue down the right path towards the fountain for a scene.
- 4After the scene with Talbot and Marlowe escaping, deal with the remaining thugs who burst into flame and teleport.
- 5Once all enemies are gone, check the left side of the stairs in the two-story building for the Akkadian Statue Head.
- 6Follow Talbot and Katherine into the elevator and ride it down for a scene.
- 7Chase after Talbot into the past and run from spiders through Cartagena’s streets. Follow the path from the beginning of the game, jumping from vents to a lamp post and then to another building. You can shoot Sully when prompted.
- 8After waking from the past, check behind the elevator for the Sabaean Moon Symbol.
- 9Slowly make your way along the path. When the Djinn appear, use heavy weapons to defeat them.
