Tomb of Semerkhet
The Tomb of Semerkhet is where Lara must search for the method to re-bind Seth after she releases him from his tomb in the Valley of the Kings. The tomb is enormous, stretching underneath the ground and reaching even as far as the isolated crags of the Eastern Desert.

Summary
The tomb is entered via a sliding door, opened by use of the Amulet of Horus. A sliding passage delivers Lara into a dead end, which can be negociated by use of grooves in the ceiling, which Lara monkey swings to safety with.
She will find herself in a three story chamber with a climable pole in the centre. By use of niches set in the walls, a door on the middle level will open. Here she will gain access to the main senet hall, where she will be able to challenge the dead high priest to a game which determines her path through the tomb. First she must retrieve the rules of the game from a fiery side chamber.
If she wins, the level will proceed down to the sarcophagus chamber, where above it she must move three cubes of coloured crystal to block beams of light which will allow her access to a chamber below. Here she can read the inscription which concerns the re-imprisonment of Seth with the Armour of Horus.
