Walkthrough

Map of Molten Gods

Letters in italics refer to marked spots on the map. Sector, thing, and linedef numbers in boldface are secrets which count toward the end-of-level tally.

Secrets

1. Head into the lava to the right of the starting point and head south. When you see a metal lift, take it up for a box of ammo, shotgun shells, a computer area map, a rocket launcher, and rockets. (sector 36)
2. At the southwest teleporter, press on the wall opposite of the teleporter to get a backpack, a stimpack, and a box of shotgun shells. (sector 101)
3. At the dark lava tunnel on the west end of the map, there is an alcove in the middle you can enter containing a radiation suit, shotgun shells, and armor bonuses. (sector 128)
4. South of the yellow door, press on the wall with two metal ridges on it to find partial invisibility, armor bonuses, and a teleporter. The teleporter takes you to an invulnerability (Hey, Not Too Rough or lower) or a soul sphere (Hurt Me Plenty or higher). (sector 156)
5. Head into the teleporter at the southwest end of the map, then head east to the wall with face switches. Use the gargoyle switch and drop down into a secret area where you can get a BFG9000. (sector 158)
