Map of The Chasm

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. From the rocky ledge where the blue key is, you can jump to the rock below containing an armor bonus and a box of shotgun shells. (sector 153)
2. Enter the cave at the start, and when you see two candles in the corner, lower the wall between them. Follow this passage to find arachnotrons guarding a rocket launcher and two medikits. (sector 159)
