Secrets[edit]

  1. Head east from the starting area and take the lift down. At the bottom, head east to the corner with the shotgun shells on the walls. There is a hidden switch on the south wall. Press it to lower the east wall. Stepping on it will raise the rest of the wall, letting you reach a berserk pack. (sector 80)
  2. Stand on the wall mentioned in secret #1 before it rises back, then straferun to the south wall. Press the set of hieroglyphs to your left when facing them (closer to the east) to reveal a passage that leads to an armor. (sector 118)
  3. North of the area with six sarcophagi is a dark room with a pain elemental (lost soul on Hey, Not Too Rough or lower) teleporting next to the fire pot. Press on the wall with hieroglyphs south of the pot to find another armor and ten armor bonuses stacked together. (sector 213)
  4. In the large room at the northernmost part of the map, look at the torches on the outside walls. The northwesternmost torch is green instead of orange. Press on the wall directly opposite of this torch to find a backpack, a box of shotgun shells, a box of ammo, a medikit, and another stack of ten armor bonuses. (sector 320)
