Secrets[edit]

  1. In the room with the multiple defunct teleporters, stepping on the one with the medikit lowers a passage on the teleporter that does not have anything on it. This passage eventually leads to the red key, and you will get all three secret sectors doing so. (sector 185)
  2. See Secret #1. (sector 186)
  3. See Secret #1. (sector 187)

Bugs[edit]

  • A few small HOMs have been reported near the start of this level, when used in Doom v1.2 or earlier.
  • When you enter in the soulsphere room trap, rush back but not too far. You will be able to go here only once.
  • Be careful to get the red key before returning back the start. You won't be able to go here, the small lift is a one-way passage.
