Walkthrough

Map of A City Now?

Letters in italics refer to marked spots on the map. Sector, thing, and linedef numbers in boldface are secrets which count toward the end-of-level tally.

Secrets

1. In the northwest building, climb to the top and climb up the of the south platform. Take the teleporter, go through, then onto the conveyor belt to get ammo. (sector 324)
2. In the underground area, head into the south building and use the switch next to the bookshelf. Another switch is behind the bookshelf. Use it to reveal a door, which leads to a secret room with a medikit, a box of ammo, and a rocket launcher. (sector 408)
3. Head west of the building where Secret #2 is, then south from the medikit to get a super shotgun. (sector 428)
4. In the complex east of the start, head to the southwest vent shaft and go to the middle. Shoot the south wall to get ammo and a medikit. (sector 489)
5. Go behind the throne in the underground area to find a door. Open it and use the desk to the west, which has a hidden switch. This opens the north wall which has a plasma gun and a medikit. (sector 551)
6. In the underground area, go near the southeast well and through a wall west of it to get an armor bonus. (sector 997)
