Secrets[edit]

  1. In the southeast building, head to the southwest door and open it to find an energy cell pack, a box of rockets, a rocket, and a berserk pack. (sector 359)
  2. Enter the northwest building in the city and climb up to the balcony. Here, head to the east end, go south to the dead end, then jump east through a small window to get a megaarmor. (sector 243)
  3. Open the building that requires the blue key, but before entering, head to the northeast corner of the building and go through the west wall. Flip the switch here, then quickly enter the building and head up the steps, then onto the north lift. Ride up to get a blur artifact. (sector 14)
  4. Go to the teleporter south of Secret #3, but enter it from the south side (this side has pink lights). When you teleport, jump east, then go to the east side of this ledge and take this teleporter. Head west, then south, then go through the wall between the cages to retrieve a BFG9000. (sector 260)
  5. Head back to the teleporter's south side and use it again. This time, re-enter the teleporter you came out of to teleport to a health bonus, a soul sphere, and an energy cell pack. (sector 691)
