Secrets[edit]

  1. At the southeast end, find the section on the west wall with a red brick at its base. Head a bit south and use the gargoyle switch in the middle to open that part of the wall to find an energy cell pack and a plasma gun. (sector 469)
  2. In the west courtyard, you will find a blur artifact in the middle. You can jump to this from the east side, jumping over a large block that has a rocket launcher and further west to the blur artifact. (sector 31)
  3. At the westernmost end, look north at the wall near the shotgun guy cage and use it. Head to the blue key and you can get a green armor nearby. (sector 466)
  4. At the northern courtyard, head to the dark "X" mark on the ground and quickly run back to the south room, then behind the column to the right to get an invulnerability. (sector 463)
  5. At the northwest end where the blue switch is, lower the north wall at the top of the steps to find ten health bonuses. (sector 467)
  6. On the bridge going over lava, head to the east side and drop to the east to get a berserk pack. (sector 465)
