Walkthrough

Map of Backdraft

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. At the south end, head to the middle building and use the gargoyle switch to lower the west wall. Use the lift behind it and ride up to rockets and a backpack. (sector 119)
2. At the southernmost end, head to the southwest side and lower the west wall where the candle is. You will find a soul sphere. (sector 206)
3. Climb the steps at the southeast tower, then jump to the wall to the southwest. Head north, use the lift, and take the teleporter, then go behind the wall to the south to get a megasphere. (sector 365)
4. In the yellow key area, use the green torch to open the northeast wall with an energy cell pack and a medikit. (sector 384)
