Essentials[edit]
At the start. get out of the room and turn right. Move forward and go around the fence. As you approach a door at the end it will open, so go through it and go down the stairs to your right. Another door will open, make a hairpin turn to the right and move towards the outside area visible from the upper area. The blue key is in a central structure blocked by bars and there is a switch straight ahead: flip it to lower the bars and grab the blue key.
Climb up the stairs and face the megaarmor alcove, to its right is a blue door. Open it and press the switch inside to lower the blue bars, allowing access to the upper area again. Move right and go through the blue door. Go down the stairs to your right and press the switch in the middle of the courtyard to open the door in front of you. Inside, go up the stairs to your left and you will find the red key. Drop down from here and open the red door to the left. Grab a radiation shielding suit, traverse the nukage and open the red bars at the end. Follow the path to the upper area and open the red door in the middle. Turn right and use the switch to end the level.
