Walkthrough[edit]

Map of UAC Executive Areas, Interlock
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.

Essentials[edit]

At the start, open the door and go down the stairs to your right. Go up the stairs in front and take the stairway to the left. Go through the opening in front and go down the stairs to arrive at an outside area. Go around the central structure to find its entrance, then climb up the stairs and collect the blue key. Retrace your steps to the start until you're near two blue torches, then face right. Go through the opening on the right, down the stairs and flip the switch in this room.

Climb the stairs back up and make a hairpin turn to the right. Once at the bottom of the stairs, take either opening in front and enter the teleporter at the end. Look towards the window on the right in front of you, then go forward and make a hairpin turn to the right to find a switch. Press it then take the teleporter again to return to the previous area. Take the previous stairs back up and make a hairpin turn to the right. Go down the stairs, continue forward and use the left teleporter. Go forward and follow the path to find the red key. Grab it and retake the teleporter to exit this area. Return to the blue torches to spot a red door in front, then go through it. Make your way through the rooms to find the exit door, then open it to find the exit switch.

Secrets[edit]

  1. After the starting area, instead of taking the stairway on your left (western), take the one on your right (eastern). Go through the opening and press the northern part of the wall in front of you (eastern) to access two medikits and a chainsaw. (sector 33)
  2. In the blue key area, a section of the southern wall is misaligned. Press it to find two stimpacks and partial invisibility. (sector 95)
  3. After taking the first teleporter in the level (accessible after pressing the blue switch), approach a switch in the area you ended up in. This will lower the easternmost window on the southern wall to the ground, giving you access to eleven health bonuses. (sector 264)
