Walkthrough

Map of The Black Lodge

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. Jump south from the start to get a megaarmor (green armor on Hey, Not Too Rough or lower). (sector 31)
2. Teleport to the second area, then head northeast and to the black and white ground to find a warp to a secret area with a box of shotgun shells, medikits, energy cell packs, and a plasma gun. (sector 73)
3. At the central intersection, jump down northwest to the armor bonus and head northwest to get it. You will also find boxes of shotgun shells, rockets, a green armor, medikits, a computer area map, and a stimpack. (sector 215)
4. Take the door north of the central intersection and go to the middle of the fountain to get a megasphere. (sector 1647)
5. Go towards the south end and you will see lots of blue torches. Find the tallest torch and shoot the eye switch tucked in the north wall to open the southwest corner. This has a megaarmor and an invulnerability. (sector 1430)
6. At the southernmost end, press the eye switch, then go get the berserk pack behind it, turn around, and press use to hit a hidden switch. Get the blue key, then backtrack to the hall with the curved steps (just south of the central intersection). Head to the red rocks to the northwest and fall down to get an energy cell pack and a megasphere. (sector 1638)
7. Use the yellow and blue switches, then the switch behind them to open the north compartment. Go through the northeast wall to find ammo and a soul sphere. (sector 361)
8. At the east end, press the face at the center of the east wall to unlock an invulnerability in the column behind you. (sector 1859)
9. In the east area of the map, go to the room at the north end with three seats and get on the west side to open a megasphere to the east. The teleporter takes you onto a large block where you can drop down to an invulnerability. (sector 744)
