Secrets[edit]

  1. When you see a blood pit to your left, go through the bloodfall to find a box of ammo. (sector 8)
  2. In the room with the switch that lowers the red key, use the switch to lower the doors blocking your way out, then go east to a room with two teleporters and a medikit. The teleporters take you to partial invisibility and a green armor. (sector 59)
  3. Inside Secret #2, press on the east wall to find a chainsaw. (sector 64)
  4. In the outdoor area with the crates, press on the crate with a computer area map on it to lower it, as well as discover a shortcut ahead. (sector 90)
  5. In the outdoor area with the crates, look directly south from the entrance and press on the brown crate to lower it. You will find a berserk pack inside the stack. (sector 97)

Bugs[edit]

A clip (Thing 174)—illuminated by a tall techno floor lamp (100)—is placed outside the playable area in the northwest, so it cannot be picked up.
