Secrets[edit]

  1. Take the easternmost door at the start, then press the eastern wall to get energy cells and a plasma gun. (sector 52)
  2. Press the southeastern wall in Secret #1 to find an invulnerability and a teleporter. (sector 59)
  3. Use the teleporter in Secret #2 to end up in the center of the map. The northwestern wall there will open, with armor bonuses and boxes of rockets inside. (sector 25)
  4. If you enter the southwestern teleporter from the doors behind it, you will unlock the northeastern wall in the center, which contains a box of ammo. (sector 14)
  5. Doing the same thing with the southeastern teleporter will unlock the southeastern wall that has a box of shotgun shells, a medikit, and two stimpacks inside. (sector 182)
  6. Doing the same thing again but with the northeastern teleporter will unlock the southwestern wall, with partial invisibility and a box of ammo inside. (sector 65)
  7. Leave the northeastern room via the western door, then open the door north of it. Follow the corridor to the end and press the southeastern wall to take a shortcut back to the northeastern room. (sector 154)
  8. In the northernmost room, flip the eastern switch under the crusher to open the southwestern alcove, with a backpack and a teleporter back to the northeastern room. (sector 13)
  9. In the red room at the northwestern part of the map, press the southern wall between the insignias and follow the trail to a chainsaw and a megaarmor. (sector 95)
  10. Grab the soul sphere at the westernmost room, then head back to the yellow door. To the north is a compartment with energy cells, stimpacks, and a BFG9000. (sector 27)
