Secrets

 * 1) At the start, head all the way to the northwest and spot a section of floor tile that looks different than the rest. Open the wall where this tile is for a switch. Press it and quickly run back towards the starting point, looking to the west side to get a box of shotgun shells and a backpack. (sector 64)
 * 2) Once you grab the blue key, you will hear a lift lower. Go back to the gold-filled room to the south to find a berserk pack and a teleporter before it rises. (sector 127)
 * 3) Take the door to the north of the large water pool and look to the green torch on the right. Shoot the skull behind the torch to open up a small passage next to the lift allowing you to reach the green armor. (sector 154)
 * 4) In the water area where you are supposed to raise two block to reach the northeast, fall into the water and spot a face switch behind a cage. Shoot it, then use a lift to head back up. Go through the hall northwest of this area and follow the new corridor until you reach a room with a megaarmor, lost souls, and energy cells. (sector 264)
 * 5) In the red key area, the candle closest to the red key hides a switch. Press it and run to the southeast corner to find a box of shotgun shells, a stimpack, and health bonuses. Keep following the halls to the southwest and you will eventually get a soul sphere. (sector 273)
 * 6) At the large outdoor courtyard at the left end of the map, head to the grassy knoll at the southwest end and look for a moon switch on the pyramid. After using it, climb the steps to the pyramid and head along the northernmost step, which has lowered a bit. Move around and jump down to get a megasphere. (sector 343)
