Secrets

 * 1) To the left and the right of the big arena with the spider masterminds are two rooms with teleporters leading to each other. The receiving sides of the teleporters both have switches which open up sides on the opposite ends. To get this secret and Secret #2, use the satyr switch on the right side, then quickly enter the teleporter to go to the left side and press the gargoyle switch if it is not open. The two skull doors will be open. Note that Secrets #1 and #2 will lead to Secrets #5 and #6 as well. (sector 134)
 * 2) See Secret #1. (sector 367)
 * 3) To get this secret and Secret #4, use the gargoyle switch on the left side, then quickly enter the teleporter to go to the right side to find two metal walls open, allowing you to reach an energy cell and a backpack. (sector 377)
 * 4) See Secret #3. (sector 369)
 * 5) Take the corridor past Secret #2 to a switch. Press it to open the wall and get an invulnerability (not on Ultra-Violence or higher) and a box of rockets. (sector 356)
 * 6) Take the corridor past Secret #1 to a switch. Press it to open the wall and get a box of ammo. (sector 674)
 * 7) At the southernmost room, press on the northwest wall for monsters and a passage to a switch which raises the steps. (sector 756)

 * 10) At the start, take the corridor behind the satyr switch until you reach the next satyr switch. Use it to open the next wall, then open the wall directly to your right to find partial invisibility. (sector 498)
