Secrets[edit]

  1. In the hall east of the yellow key, you will see a soul sphere (invulnerability on Hey, Not Too Rough or lower) to the north. Approaching it causes the floor to lower. In order to get this secret, you must run at full speed towards the pickup, otherwise this secret will not be accessible. (sector 272)
  2. In the northeast caves, head to the northernmost end and use the back wall to find energy cell packs and a plasma gun. (sector 781)
  3. In the area west of the hub, on the west ledges, use the wall with the blood splat in front of it to find a radiation suit at a dropoff point. You can find an energy cell pack down here. (sector 888)
  4. After getting the chainsaw in the area southeast of the hub, go back to Secret #3 and head west to get a megasphere. (sector 951)
  5. In the hall northwest of the hub, fall into the damaging floor and go through the slimefall at the northwest end. Go through the teleporter to get medikits, ammo, a green armor, and a BFG9000. Note that it is not possible to leave this secret area unless you are playing on Ultra-Violence or higher. (sector 1025)
