Secrets[edit]

  1. Flip the switch in the crusher room to open the columns, then head to the northeast column with the eye. You will teleport to the cage to the east with the BFG9000. (sector 3)
  2. In the northern areas, head south from the blue key and southeast to an energy cell pack. An arrow points west. Run out the window there to get a computer area map. (sector 6)
  3. At the yellow key, a small corridor going north leads to a switch. Press the switch near the yellow key first to open the way to the starting area, then press the switch in the corridor. Quickly run west into the middle of the starting area and fall into the hole which has a soul sphere. (sector 169)
  4. In the red room with hanging bodies, go to the northwest side to a lava pit. Hug the right wall as you head north to get past the pit, where you can get a rocket launcher and rockets. (sector 209)
  5. Enter the blood river at the east end and go north. As you head west, an alcove to the north has a cacodemon (demon on Hey, Not Too Rough or lower). Use the lit lion switch in this alcove to get a berserk pack. (sector 214)
  6. In the northern areas, get to a pink hallway with two hanging bodies, a bit northwest of the blue key. Open the northwest wall here to get a backpack and rockets. (sector 216)
