Other points of interest[edit]
To access the secret exit, go to east section of the map and take the series of teleporters until you have reached the southern-most platform, and hit the eye located inside a narrow corridor in the southern wall. This will open up a wall in the south-east cave where the series of teleporters ends. Inside the wall there is a teleporter pad surrounded by candles that will take you to the secret map, E5M9: Realm of Iblis.
Secrets[edit]
- When you enter the first blood pit, drop down and grab the energy cell pack on the south side. (sector 489)
- Enter the dark hallway at the west section of the map. When you reach the green armor, a cage opens up ahead of you with barons of Hell inside. From the cage, go east, and south a bit, then look at one of the walls to see it has an opening underneath. Open this wall to get a BFG9000. (sector 130)
- When you have the red key, reach the red bars and open every single one of them, then run across the tops of all bars. You will open several sets of doors to the west which lead to a room containing an invulnerability. (sector 168)

Inspiration and development[edit]
During development, the series of floors over lava which descend when stepped on suffered spechits overflows and had to be simplified as a result.[1]
