Walkthrough[edit]

Map of Halls of Anguish
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.

Essentials[edit]

At the start, face left and approach the doors. They will open when you get close so move past them, go up both sets of stairs to your left and press the switch at the end. Backtrack to the entrance of this room and the two doors that were closed should now be open. Go through them and move straight ahead until you pick up the blue key. Get out of this room and go left to find the blue door. Inside, enter the teleporter and move forward to trigger the death exit.

Secrets[edit]

  1. In the starting room, find the blue torch (northwestern one) and press on its wall, which will open a passage to the south. Out there, two pillars will lower, allowing you to get a soul sphere and a berserk pack. Both pillars count as the two separate secrets for this map. (sector 50)
  2. See Secret #1. (sector 51)
