currently on level...9, i guess? I forgot and can't check right now. But here's the stuff: "ogre passage" or something like that. I´ve got that we must free the ogres in order they step on plates, then the demon heads will release bolts, opening a nearby door. My question is, in what order it should be done, and also what's up with that gems on the statues? We have to remove them? Before of after the ogres step in the plates?

"all things must be done in pairs" is the key hint to all of that. Each ogre has a pair of plates that must be ran across fast, each daemon head has a pair of eyes that must match, and the two ogres together form a pair of ogres that must be lured to run one right after the other. Use the button near the crossing point, and lure the N/S ogre to run first, then the E/W ogre, then get out of the way of both the ogres and the magic bolts. It's a bit of a dance but not too hard once you know what to do.

it refers to the map that comes with the game, the isle is the Isle of Nex, the item is the Sword of Nex. That clue doesn't help you find the item, but once you find it, then you'll know where to take it :)

I also cannot find the last secret on level 2. I have 10 secrets so far and I only found 7 of them on level 2. I am pretty sure I found all the basic ones that deal with buttons and stuff. I checked the walkthrough on the original game and it noted 6 secrets. I definitely found all of those, so it has to be one of the 2 new secrets. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance!
