Secrets[edit]
- From the start, head north and then all the way northwest. You will find a box of rockets, partial invisibility, shotgun shells, and a berserk pack. This secret closes after thirty seconds have passed in the level. (sector 156)
- Head south from Secret #1 and look to the southeast for an evil eye. Shoot it to reveal a stimpack, a box of ammo, and shotgun shells. (sector 249)
- On the way to the blue key, after a lift down, look west and shoot the eye to find a box of ammo, an energy cell pack, and a medikit (not on Ultra-Violence or higher). (sector 222)
- Take the east path at the split and after the two red pillars, find a blue wall to the south and shoot it to open a nearby wall with an armor bonus and a medikit. (sector 243)
- Take the outer of two paths east of Secret #4. When the path turns north, look south and find an evil eye to shoot. This will open a nearby wall with a box of ammo, a stimpack, and an energy cell. (sector 255)
- Shoot an eye northeast of the red key to open a compartment down the steps with a berserk pack and a megaarmor. (sector 125)
- Open the red bars and look north to shoot an evil eye. This opens the wall behind you allowing you to get a box of rockets and a soul sphere. (sector 228)
