Secrets[edit]

  1. In the largest building, head east from the center and up the steps until a closet to the north opens. Enter it and flip the switch, then climb up another set of steps, heading outside to the south to get a chainsaw. (sector 67)
  2. Take the teleporter that leads to the red key, then re-enter it, but from the east side. The area you come to is the easternmost section of the largest building, and from here you can head southeast to get a BFG9000. (sector 94)
  3. In the west building, head east, taking the zigzag path to a teleporter. When you teleport, turn around and open the wall to get a blur artifact. (sector 225)
  4. Inside the central building, climb to the top and at the door, lower the north wall to get a green armor. (sector 265)
