Walkthrough[edit]
Essentials[edit]
Go straight forward past some zombiemen to the red skull key—as you reach the key a set of bars will close on it, and the doors on either side will open to reveal more zombiemen. Go through any of the southern doors to enter a small courtyard then go down the stairs at the south end to face some zombies and demons, then go north-west up another staircase to enter a room with a box of bullets. Open the door at the north end of this room to reach the red key, which is guarded by chaingunners and an arachnotron that teleports in.
Go back to the southern area and climb up the east staircase to reach a lawn with an arachnotron, then go north up another flight of steps and open the red door at the top to enter the room with the blue skull key. Kill the waiting Hell knights then pick up the blue key to seal the entrances to the room open three closets with cacodemons (plus demons and an arachnotron on Hurt Me Plenty skill level or higher). Press the skull switch inside the middle closet to open the bars behind the blue key and step through them to return to the starting point, then go back to the red key room and pass through the door to get back to the previous area.
Go north through another door to enter a room with two sets of blue bars and press the switch in the middle of the room to open the first set, and bring in an arachnotron and two cacodemons (or revenants on Ultra-Violence and Nightmare). Go up the steps that open in the west and north walls to reach the upper floor and press a second switch here to open the second set of blue bars, allowing you to reach the yellow skull key. Go back to the blue key room and open the yellow door to face a pain elemental, then go up the stairs and kill any enemies waiting in the next room. Open the door at the east end of the room to open two closets behind you with chaingunners and summon a pain elemental (or arch-vile on UV and NM), then press the switch inside the south closet to open the bars blocking the exit teleporter.

Secrets[edit]
- In the area west of the red key, go to the upper level and look at the east wall to see two sets of shotgun shells and a candle. Press the wall east of the candle to lower it and reveal a lift going up to a partial invisibility. (sector 255)
- Go south from the red door. You will eventually notice an alcove with a supercharge in the south wall. (sector 327) Press the southern wall with the misaligned texture in the south-west corner of the area to find a passage to the secret.
- Picking up the super shotgun in the northernmost part of the map opens up four alcoves. Press on the north part of the west wall in the north-west alcove to find a narrow hallway that will lead you to a megaarmor. (sector 88)
