Secrets[edit]

  1. Get the blue key and face northeast. Shoot the switch there, then go up the west steps again to find a new switch. This lowers the soul sphere beyond the cage. (sector 16)
  2. At the secret exit, press the switch nearby and jump northeast to the pit. To the south, get the boxes of rockets. (sector 23)
  3. Use the gargoyle faces at the red key, then find a switch to the west. Return to where the secret exit is and you can now access it. (sector 92)
