MAP26: Inner Sanctum is the twenty-sixth map of Baculus. It was designed by Glen Christie (Crunchynut44) and uses the music track "Souls Trapped Between Rotten Bricks" by Vladislav Baymurzin (ClumsyDoomer), originally from the Revolution! MIDI Pack.

Walkthrough

Map of Inner Sanctum

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. Head towards the red key door in the center, then head west and gently drop down to get a berserk pack. (sector 39)
2. In the southeast lava pit, go to the platform with gargoyle faces. A lion face is at the southwest side. Use that face to lower the platform, where you can then push a skull switch. This will lower the block to the north which contains a megasphere. (sector 188)
3. In the red key area, head to the northwest side and find a lion switch, which will lower a wall to the east, containing energy cells. (sector 315)
