Secrets[edit]

  1. In the blue hallway, go to the southwest corner and lower the wall. Ride up to get a box of shotgun shells and an energy cell pack. (sector 264)
  2. In Secret #1, lower the south wall and go to the megasphere to teleport to a secret arena. (sector 470)
  3. In the first hall with crates, go to the east wall and head south. Find the crate that says "SUSPICIOUS CRATE #1" and open it to get a chaingun and boxes of ammo. (sector 221)
  4. In the red key area, head to the south room and open the south compartment. Find "SUSPICIOUS CRATE #2" and open it to get a box of shotgun shells, a backpack, rockets, and a computer area map. (sector 519)
  5. After opening the door that requires the red and yellow keys, head to the east side and open the crate that says "DON'T OPEN". After it tells you "WELL, YOU ASKED FOR IT", you will get a soul sphere. Look out for five arch-viles that spawn in as well. (sector 853)
