Secrets[edit]

  1. Head behind the east column at the start to get a berserk pack. (sector 172)
  2. Head to the southeast end of the exit building and find the eye switch. After pressing it, head to the north end of the map and go northwest into a cave with health bonuses, ammo, medikits, and a stimpack. Take the teleporter to get a megaarmor. (sector 391)
  3. Take the lift that leads to the red key, then jump west onto a platform, then west again through a window to get an invulnerability. (sector 265)
  4. The switch mentioned in Secret #2 will also open a cave at the east side of the main area. Enter here to get armor bonuses, rockets, an energy cell, a stimpack, and a teleporter to an invulnerability. (sector 137)
  5. At the blue key, look west from the blue key ledge and shoot the switch, revealing a teleporter below it. Take it to get to a ledge with a megaarmor and medikits. (sector 225)
  6. In the blue key area, go to the switch near the blue key bars. Press it and quickly flip the switch to the north. Return to the previous area and head west, going through a path leading to a box of rockets and a switch. The switch lowers a berserk pack. (sector 220)
  7. The switch mentioned in Secret #2 will open an area in the starting cave to the northeast, which leads to a megasphere. (sector 198)
  8. Open both the red and blue doors, then back up as you face west until you see the wall lower. Quickly run west to get the computer area map and partial invisibility. (sector 298)
