Secrets[edit]

  1. Immediately upon starting the map, turn around, go to the stone wall and open it to reveal a partial invisibility.
  2. In the area where you get the red key, look at the section of wall to the left of the stairs leading up to the open area with the cyberdemon and other enemies. The middle section can be walked through to find a supercharge.
  3. After obtaining the red key, there will be a newly-opened area in the northeastern section of the moat in the starting area. Head in to find some boxes of rockets, as well as a teleporter that will take you up to a plasma gun, a backpack, and a partial invisibility.
  4. After gaining access to the exit door, face the door and look at the black, metal panel with the pentagram on the far right. Shoot or melee it to lower it, which will grant you access to the megaarmor visible from the starting point. The actual secret sector is just after the exit teleporter, so you might need to be very careful and/or slow in order to actually tag it.
