Secrets[edit]

  1. On the ledge at the southwest end, shoot both of the lion switches and head to the room that opens to the left to get a plasma gun. (sector 286)
  2. Get the red key and face west, towards the picture of Hitler. Shoot with the rocket launcher towards the picture and you should be able to kill two Commander Keens. This will open the door to the south, which leads to a switch. Press it to reveal a platform southwest of the key. Take it to the ledge with two backpacks. (sector 316)
  3. At Secret #2, look towards where the switch is and shoot it from the back. This will reveal a passage leading to a megasphere. (sector 317)
  4. Take the southwest stairs at the start. Use the wall to the left of those steps to find a berserk pack. (sector 910)

Bugs[edit]

Two zombiemen (Things 39 and 40) in the southwest have no flags set for any of the three difficulty classes, so they do not actually appear in the level.
