Walkthrough

Map of Curse of Altamira

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 large hall leading to the red skull key, go to the middle, then go to the metal wall to the west. The north side of this wall has a metal light. Use it, then go to the northwest part of the map and on the walkways, get to the north walkway. Run and jump east to get a megasphere. (sector 1013)
2. In the orange sludge at the south end, go west and press the switch, then northeast into a cave to get small BFG crystals, a radiation suit, and a BFG9000. (sector 1267)
3. Follow the winding path northeast of the starting point and at the bars, shoot a wall to the west repeatedly and go through. Drop down at the end to get a soul sphere. (sector 2150)
