MAP07: The Cube is the seventh level of The Abyss. It was designed by Miklos de Rijk (H2SO4), features Dead Simple mechanics, and shares a similar layout. This level is technically a beginner's trap, since it cannot be completed unless the player knows the behavior of the rising square steps.

Walkthrough[edit]
Essentials[edit]
While this level is similar to Dead Simple, the player must be able to reach the center of the arena as soon as the last arachnotron is killed. If the player does not reach the center in time, the level cannot be completed without cheating.
Other points of interest[edit]
Two satyr switches, when thrown, lower two pillars containing a rocket launcher and plasma rifle.
Secrets[edit]
- After killing all of the mancubi, the central part of the arena where the exit is lowers. The first sector here counts as a secret. (sector 4)
- The next sector with ammo surrounding the exit also counts as a secret, and it rises up after killing all of the arachnotrons in the map. (sector 27)
