Secrets[edit]

  1. Before the first door is a secret door to the south leading to three health bonuses, two clips, a shotgun, 4 shotgun shells, a medikit, and an armor. (sector 70)
  2. Towards the south of the level is a large almost-rectangular room with four square structures in the centre. The north-western structure has a secret door on its western wall (marked with a different texture), leading to an imp, a box of bullets, a box of shotgun shells, a box of rockets, a berserk, and (on multiplayer) a rocket launcher. (sector 252)
  3. The north-eastern structure (see #2) has a secret door on its north wall (marked with a different texture) leading to two imps (hard skill only), a chainsaw and a backpack. (sector 387)
  4. Shortly after the room containing #2 and #3, you will reach a corridor with a switch at the end. Here there is a door to the north leading to an imp, two berserks and a backpack. (sector 418)
  5. South-east of the yellow key is a crossroads with four rising floors behind cages. Head east from here through a door, and shoot the eastern part of the northern wall at the top of the stairs. It opens, revealing a passage to a door to a room with an imp (hard skill only), a soul sphere, and a megaarmor. (sector 196)
  6. In the north-west is a room with two medikits on a console. This room has a secret door in the north-west leading to an imp (two on hard skill), a medikit, two boxes of bullets, and a box of shotgun shells. (sector 380)
