Walkthrough

Map of Pressure Point

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.

Essentials

Grab the berserk pack and drop down. You can get a chaingun if you go north, and find some enemies near barrels here. If you go south, you will find a shotgun and a switch. Hit this switch to raise a wall where your starting point was. Now lower this wall and ride it up. Be wary if you intend to take the rocket launcher as a crusher will come down if you do. You will have to build a bridge to cross further to the east, so hit the switch in the southeastern corner of this area to raise it up. Continue behind the wall to find a satyr switch opening the gates behind you. Go through here and drop down into the final area featuring a couple of Hell knights and some cacodemons. Watch out for the barrels as you fight them, and then exit.

Secrets

1. Head to the left side of the bridge to find a chaingun and some bullets. (sector 37)
