Secrets[edit]

  1. After you acquire the red key, don't go to the normal exit. Instead use a stack of boxes along the eastern wall to climb on top of the crates, jump between them to get to the red vent door, drop down on the ledge and further into slime pool, where you can find the secret exit. (sector 131)
  2. In the room with the blue key, step on the window and use the cube on which the blue key was placed to jump on the ledge along the northern wall. Turn around the corner for a plasma gun. (sector 265)
  3. In the starting area, use the silver ledge to climb on top of the rocks along the southeastern cave wall. Pass through the vines for a chainsaw. (sector 296)
  4. After passing through the brick building on the far end of the bridge, turn around and press a horizontal red rectangle in the eyes of a marble demon mural. This will open a secret compartment with a medikit (on Ultra-Violence) or a berserk (on lower difficulties). (sector 299)
