Town Of Witchcraft is a single-level PWAD for Heretic released in 2007 for limit removing source ports (ZDoom recommended). It was designed by Samuel Villarreal (Kaiser) and uses the music track "Mist" from Heretic by Kevin Schilder. Town Of Witchcraft is also known as Kaiser 21 and an updated version was later included in Heretic Treasure Chest as E1M4: Town Of Witchcraft.

Secrets[edit]

  1. Open the wall behind your starting point to find a Tome of Power, two quartz flasks, a Bag of Holding and an enchanted shield. (sector 840)
  2. At the northeasternmost area with the two switches that open two teleporters, enter the northern one. In the small tower you appear in, flip the switch in front of you, then quickly exit the room and take the other teleporter to reach the green key area. Quickly head into the other teleporter to be at the southeast end of the map. From there, quickly run northwest towards the lowered pillar before it rises to claim a phoenix rod. (sector 888)
  3. Just west of the town square and up the steps to the north, open the door and proceed east. Look at the walls as you do, and open the north wall before the bend in the hall to find an ophidian and two quartz flasks. Stepping here will release another ophidian in a compartment containing a Ring of Invincibility. (sector 1236)
  4. Just east of the town square and up the steps to the north, open the door and proceed further northward. At the bend, you will be ambushed by disciples of D'Sparil. Go into the leftmost alcove and press on the west wall to reveal a map scroll and a switch. The switch reveals the way to two quartz flasks, two inferno orbs, and four lesser runes. (sector 551)
  5. After getting the blue key, go to the right side of the fortress and climb the steps to the north to the open room. Press the switch, and assuming you have been to the northwest tower which also required the blue key, you will reveal eight teleporters around you, along with disciples of D'Sparil. Look at the two teleporters in the southeast and look for the one that has a different glitter than the others. Enter this teleporter and you will find Wings of Wrath. (sector 887)
