Secrets[edit]

  1. After using the switch where the megaarmor and cursed BFG9000 are, return north and head east, north, then east. Use the blue wall nearby to lower it as well as a megacharge. (sector 536)
  2. Head north in the hall that has the blue wall for Secret #1. Use the switch you find to go back to a hall you went through before. Head to the east side, then go south and use the switch here. Head back to the switch that led you here and teleport again. To the north is another switch (which only works on Ultra-Violet or higher) that teleports you to a super shotgun. (sector 647)
  3. In the long hall going south, you will see an evil eye with two barrels around it on the east side. Shoot up at the barrels, making sure to hit the wall behind them, which lowers that part of the ledge. This reveals a blur artifact. (sector 696)
