Night at the Museum 2: Battle of the Smithsonian Game Guide

Below you will find a sample of Chapter 1 from the Lunabean "Night at the Smithsonian 2" Walkthrough and Strategy Guide. If you'd like to download the complete guide, please sign up for the LunaPass.

Find a Map

Maps can be found at the Information desk, which is located at the back side of the front desk. So, move around to the other side, walk into the light, and collect your map. Once collected, go through the map tutorial to learn how to activate and use your Museum Map.

Clean Out Larry's Locker

Time to put those map reading skills to the test. Pull up your map ("-" on the Wii) and take note of the blue glowing room. That's where you're going!

Head all of the way down the left hallway (behind the left set of stairs), and walk into the light next to the door at the end. Hit "Action" to move the cart, then to enter the locker room. Move to the open locker and hit "Action" again. This will give you both the flashlight and the keychain. Take note of the on-screen directions provided after collecting these items, as they'll tell you what buttons to hit to activate them (on the Wii, use "C" to use your flashlight and "Z" to use your keychain).

Play Fetch with Rexy

Exit the locker room and move down the hall. Step into the light and hit "Action". After the quick cutscene, grab the highlighted bone with "Action", then hit "A" again to toss the bone.

Say Hello to Jed and Octavius

Climb the stack of crates on the right by getting close to them and hitting your "Jump" button ("B" on the Wii). Once you reach the top, jump the gap and stand in the light. Hit "Action" to free your little friends.

Play Fetch Again

No tricks here. Head back down and toss the bone to Rexy again.

Take Rexy for a Ride

Riding Rexy allows you to grab items that hover higher than your normal reach, and allows you to break various items on the ground. Go ahead play around with the big skeleton. When you're done, return him to his original position by the museum entrance. Use your "Jump" button to dismount. If you want to ride him again, simply find his bone near the stack of crates you just climbed, then pick it up and toss it.

Visit Ahkmenrah

Make your way to the Tomb Room. Head up the stairs in into the Tomb Room at the top (you'll have to move behind the wall to find the entrance). Move to the back of the room, walk into the light and hit "Action".

Learn About the Tablet

Standing in front of the Tablet, activate your Flashlight ("C" on the Wii) and you'll be provided with a little Tablet tutorial.

Put your newly found Tablet knowledge to use and Use the Eye of Horus to Reveal Hidden Collectibles! Pull out your Flashlight and you'll now notice a purple glow to it. Follow the onscreen instructions to move the Flashlight (on the Wii, point the Wii-mote at the screen and use it as your Flashlight). Take a couple of steps back to locate the hidden Collectible (it, too, glows purple) to your left. Simply walk into it to grab it.

Next, you are to Climb on the Display Case. No problem. Simply move toward the Tomb Room exit and walk into the light just before the exit. Activate your keychain ("Z" on the Wii) to climb atop the display case. Once there, look left and note the horizontal pole. Fling your keychain at the pole then walk toward it to swing above the door, to the top of the display case on the opposite side.

Return to the ground and move toward the back of the room. Look up and left to locate the glowing vase. Pull the Vase Down with your Keychain. If you're having trouble doing this, you're probably too close to it, so, back away, look for the green glowing snake to let you know you're in a good spot, then toss your keychain at that vase. Shine your Flashlight at the broken mess to Use your Eye of Horus again. You can scroll through your Ingot Powers here until your reach the Repair Ingot (on the Wii, scroll by pressing right or left on your control pad), or, better yet, simply point your Flashlight at the broken pile and watch as the correct Ingot is highlighted for you. Hit your "Action" button to automatically use that Ingot power.

Up next, the Painting Ingot. Return to the Tablet, then note the light to your right. Step into the light and pull up your Flashlight. This time you do have to scroll through your Ingots. Do just that until you see the Paintbrush (there will be an extra glow when you hit the right Ingot). Once selected, hold and press your "Action" button to charge the Painting. Once charged, hit "Action" again to jump through the painting. You'll end up in the same room, just in a different spot.

To see the Gear Ingot in action, walk into either light that's illuminating either door in that back Tomb Room (I went with the one to the right) and pull up your Flashlight again. Scroll until you reach the Gear (blue), then hit "Action" to raise the door. Collect what's inside.

Move back out, toward the Anubii statues that are blocking your exit. Point your Flashlight at one of them and select the Animal Ingot (the yellow paw). Hold "Action" until the Anubus raises his spear, then repeat with the second statue.

Return to Ahkmenrah to say goodbye, then exit the Tomb Room.

Say Goodbye to Jed and Octavius

Make your way back downstairs then climb the crates at the bottom to say goodbye to your little friends.

Inspect the Malfuntioning Hologram

Move toward the museum entrance and you'll spot Teddy Roosevelt to your left. Speak to him.

Optional: Find Three Packs of Gum

Locate three Packs of Gum and give them to Easter Island Head at the top of the stairs. The three packs are located:

1. In the Locker Room. 2. In the Tomb Room. Atop the display case to the left (if facing the display case). 3. On the first floor, right hallway, next to the tree ring.

Return to Easter Island Head with the gum for an Award.

Optional: Make a Pressed Penny Souvernir

Find the Pressed Penny machine opposite the Tomb Room entrance to activate the objective. Next, collect the four Quarters:

1. Ride Rexy to collect the Quarter high between the staircases.
2. Ride Rexy to collect the Quarter above the museum entrance.
3. Ride Rexy to smash the crates along the left hall. Inside one is a Quarter.
4. Climb the right staircase to the second floor and climb the crates to your right.

Then find the Penny (inside the Vase you break inside the Tomb Room). Return to the Pressed Penny machine and hit "Action" to create your Pressed Penny Souvernir. LB Night at the Museum 2 Game Guide
