Secrets[edit]

  1. Head to the alcove east of the super shotgun and open the south wall to head outside where a chainsaw is. (sector 36)

  4. In the room where Secret #2 is, open the north wall to get a plasma gun and an energy cell. (sector 209)
  5. At the north end, go to the east side and shoot a lion switch behind a cage. Head south into the blood and head south and west into a new room with a green armor and a berserk pack. (sector 225)
