Secrets[edit]

  1. In the north-east of the level are several rooms, one of which is marked with a + sign (indicating that there is health present). The east wall of this room has a secret door (marked with a different texture) leading to a switch. The switch opens access to a nearby room which contains a teleporter to the south-west. (sector 296)
  2. East of the start is a short corridor containing two small ledges with three health bonuses on each. Behind the northern one is a secret door leading to a room with a shotgun guy and a computer area map. There are also a few other small rooms accessible from here. (sector 95)
  3. The north-eastern part of the room reached by the teleporter north of the red key counts as a secret and is impossible to miss. (sector 228)

Secret exit: There is a red door to the north of the area with the yellow key. The first time you enter the room, you will teleport, but the second time you enter, you can press the exit switch.
