Walkthrough


Yellow skull key is the only key to collect in this level. In the starting outside area enter the door ahead. Grab the shotgun of the dead man and head into another door before you. In the next room, there are two switches located east and west. It is enough to press just one or if you want press them both. After that, return back to the starting place. Enter the northern corridor, as the blocking-way bars (or just one) are lowered. Go to the east of the corridor. Face south here and walk on the narrow ledge toward the yellow skull key.

After collecting it, backtrack into the corridor and open the northeastern door. Advance on the corridor toward two exit doors in the north. Enter either one, then flip the lever to end this level.

Secrets

 * 1) Once in the large circular room in the south, go through the door to the west and continue right up the stairs. After passing through the next door, turn around and open the differently textured wall just left of it. Inside is a berserk pack. (sector 53)
 * 2) Open the wall directly across from the exit switch to get a backpack. (sector 234)
