Secrets[edit]

  1. Drop two holes northeast of the start, then head east and drop to the area to the southeast. At the east side, shoot the barrel and open the wall where it was to find a berserk pack, a medikit or two (depending on skill level), a box of shotgun shells or two (depending on skill level), a box of ammo, a backpack, and a super shotgun guarded by an imp. (sector 58)
  2. Drop two holes northeast of the start, then head around the wall to the north and west. Drop down there and enter the corridor. Open the south wall to find an imp and a megaarmor. (sector 229)

  4. Open the east wall in Secret #3 to find a chaingunner guarding a chainsaw, a rocket launcher, three rockets, a box of ammo, a super shotgun, and a yellow keycard. The last two items are only there on Hey, Not Too Rough or lower. (sector 238)
  5. After you get the yellow key, go through the corridor that had the previous three secrets, the north and west to a yellow door. Open it, then take the first path south and open the wall.
