Walkthrough[edit]
Essentials[edit]
Kill the monsters across the gap and drop in to the right, being sure to pick up a radiation suit as you go. Follow this nukage tunnel to the next big room. The northern door can be opened, so take it. In the next room you need to raise a staircase, so head around to the left and open the next door to reach a crate room. Clamber over the crates your immediate right upon entering this room, and head north to the switch. After hitting it, head back into the previous room to see the staircase being raised. Hit the switch here, and then go back to the room at the end of the sewer tunnel to find the other door is now open. Head through this room to the lift, and then ride it up. Follow this simple path until you reach the yellow keycard. When you grab it, closets with imps open up to the sides. Go all the way back to the beginning and take the northern sewer passage this time, opening the bars with the yellow key. Follow this passage all the way to the end where the chaingun is and open the door. Just grab the red keycard here and then backtrack to midpoint of the sewer path where you passed by the red door. Now open this door into a symmetrical room. There are two paths that lead up, but the one on your right does not have a bridge, so take the left one, up the steps to the switch. This raises a bridge for the other path, so take that one up to another switch. Hit this one, and then go all the way back to the beginning of the level. You will find that you have raised a bridge leading to the exit, so get out of the sewer by using the lift and cross the bridge, then press the switch to open the door to exit.
Other points of interest[edit]
Secrets[edit]
- When you raise the staircase in the room north of the room at the end of the first tunnel, you will also notice a soul sphere on a nearby ledge (sector 94). The only possible way to reach it is to perform a straferun towards it from the top of the staircase.
- In the northwestern part of the gray hallway that leads to the yellow keycard, press the northern wall to reveal a lift that will lead you to a computer area map and a berserk pack. (sector 397)
- In the symmetrical room behind the red door, go straight to the southern part of the room, opposite the red door and a bit to your left (east). Press the wall with a skull on it to reveal a chainsaw and a lot of health and armor bonuses. (sector 385)
- In the same room as secret #3, there is a switch on the western part of the area (it doesn't have a bridge leading to another switch). Make sure you wear a radiation suit to not take damage (there is one in the area), and press this switch. Now run to the eastern part of the room as quickly as you can to a lowered lift. Go through the passage before it rises back to another lift with a rocket launcher that leads to the area with a backpack, and some ammo. (sector 366)
