Secrets[edit]

  1. Head east from the super shotgun and then south to two gallows. Head under them, then west to get a green armor. (sector 525)
  2. Head east from Secret #1, heading to the road that leads north and when it goes east, keep heading north to the trees and rocks. Head behind them and follow the path west to boxes of ammo, a box of shotgun shells, and a soul sphere near the girl in the water. (sector 553)
  3. Go to the small building that has the yellow key and head behind the building to find a backpack. (sector 1737)
  4. Once you enter the city, head north on the first street until you can head to an alley to the east. Take it, then go south. Make some noise near the east door and the shotgun guy will open it for you. You can then get the berserk pack. (sector 2477)
  5. Head back to the first street in the city, then go on the outside of the east fence heading north. When you can head east, do so to get to a dead end with shotgun shells, ammo clips, and a backpack. (sector 5291)
  6. Head all the way to the eastern street of the city and go all the way south. Head west into the alley to get medikits. (sector 4868)
  7. After getting the red key, return to the east side of the city and find the door that requires the red key. Enter and take two lifts, then head out to the terrace and into the store to the north to get medikits, boxes of rockets, and energy cell packs. (sector 4576)
  8. Inside the northwest building, enter the women's restroom and go to the sink with blood. Use the sink to open the mirror which has medikits. (sector 7606)
