Secrets[edit]

  1. Shoot the switch to the west at the start to lower either one or two invulnerabilities depending on your skill level. (sector 641)
  2. Shoot the switch to the east at the start to lower either one or two invulnerabilities depending on your skill level. (sector 645)
  3. At the north cliffs in the secret forest, climb the steps, then jump across them to the south side of the fence. Head east and around to get a blur artifact. (sector 2087)
  4. At the northwest end of the secret forest, one of the trees has a berserk pack in the north end of the trunk. (sector 2207)
  5. After killing the six Commander Keens in the secret forest area, head back to the north cave and rocket jump up the waterfall to find a teleporter to the Icon of Sin. This counts as two secrets, however the teleporter line will prevent you from accessing one of the secret sectors without the no-clipping code. (sector 2937)
