Walkthrough

Map of Fear Station Alpha

Letters in italics refer to marked spots on the map. Sector, thing, and linedef numbers in boldface are secrets which count toward the end-of-level tally.

Secrets

1. Inside the dark passage at the west side, go until you reach the third turn, where a beige wall will be in the southeast corner. Open it to get a green armor. (sector 131)
2. In the aqueducts, head to the room with one of the three switches to lower the blue key and take a lift to the east down. Look through the east window and shoot the switch. Leave and enter the entrance of the aqueducts again. Dive into the southeast pool and swim east, then surface to find a room with a medikit, a plasma gun, and 0-2 energy cells depending on your skill level. The second pool here has a backpack. (sector 86)
3. In the storage area, head to the high ledge at the south end. On the east side, open the northwest wall and press the switch. This will lower one of the crates at the south end, which you can jump inside to get a chainsaw. (sector 212)
4. In the southernmost room, open the west passage in the nukage and enter it. Just a bit in, open the north wall to find a radiation suit. (sector 350)
