Secrets[edit]

  1. At the entrance to the building, head north behind the railing for a medikit, a rocket, and a box of rockets. (sector 2733)
  2. At the first intersection inside, head east and in the next room, go to the switch and use the backside. Head east to get medikits and a megaarmor. (sector 3771)
  3. In the large nukage river, unlock the larger west side and open the door to the north. Walk up the steps to the east for a megasphere to make three alcoves open. Enter the east one and shoot the north switch. Enter the south alcove and into the east side for a computer area map. (sector 7038)
  4. In the long halls past the blue door, when you get to a room with Hell knights on a ledge to the west, climb the steps to that ledge. Quickly jump off, returning southeast, then going south to a hall. Look east and press the red switch before it closes to open a teleporter to the southwest. You will teleport to a secret area with ammo, a BFG9000, an armor bonus, a megasphere, and a soul sphere. If you go to the nukage to the east, there will be a small alcove with a red tile at the north end. Use it and leave, going back west and then south to a teleporter to access the Easter egg section. (sector 4003)
  5. As you try to get the red key, you will soon be in a rectangular room where the central switch will open a section with cacodemons to the northeast. After you open it, return to the red key area, get the key, and enter the southeast closet. Head west in it to go to where the cacodemons came from, where you will find medikits, a backpack, energy cell packs, and a box of rockets (the box of rockets and two of the energy cell packs are not available on Hey, Not Too Rough or lower). (sector 2060)
  6. Head west from the first intersection inside the main building after getting the red key and open the next hall. Go to the room to the north with four squares, then step on the northeast square. Quickly run back south, look northeast, and shoot the button. This will open an alcove southeast of you with a megaarmor. (sector 5001)
