SecretsEdit

1. Enter the pyramid in the northwestern part of the map. Inside, go behind the northern wall and look for a switch, which will lower the coffin to the east, allowing access to the cave. (sector 419)
2. Inside the titular citadel, go up the steps and look towards the fireplace. Look for the pool of blood, then press the wall where it is to get an energy cell pack. (sector 572)
3. There is a switch in Secret #2. Press it to leave that secret, then run to the other alcove that is east of the fireplace to obtain another energy cell pack. (sector 573)
4. If you have the blue keycard, you can use it to open the door in the northwestern part of the citadel, and then use the lift to go down to the nearby waterway system near the cave mentioned in Secret #1. To the east of the lift, you can find a BFG9000. (sector 612)
