Secrets[edit]

  1. In the first section, go to the teleporter to the east and look at the north wall. You can spot a small button just above the green part of the wall, which you can actually use from below. Press the button, quickly enter the teleporter, and run north to a lowered teleporter to be taken to a backpack and boxes of rockets. (sector 510)
  2. In the exit area, go to the northwest end and look southeast to find a skull switch. Press it and quickly run to the south end, getting on the lift in the middle. Take it up and take the teleporter. Teleport two more times to get radiation suits and an energy cell pack. (sector 529)
