Secrets

  1. Look to the right while standing on the edge in beginning of the level. You will notice the green eye in the small alcove. Shoot it to reveal the secret room behind you with a berserk pack in it. (sector 41)
  2. After entering the previous secret room, press the right wall inside it to reveal another secret containing a soulsphere and a box of shotgun shells. (sector 45)
  3. After beating the baron of Hell and picking up the red key in the cage, turn around. Drop down into lava near the rightmost torch. You will see a teleport flickering in the wall. Enter it to move into the secret room containing a soulsphere, a chaingun and a box of bullets. (sector 96)
  4. After rising up on the first elevator in the beginning of the level, walk carefully on the small ledge around rightmost torch to find a secret megaarmor. (sector 97)
