Tips
  • It is more efficient to collect both secrets in one run, as attempting them separately requires backtracking.
  • The switches revealed by these secrets open new passages in the hallway connecting the starting room to the square room with the Blue Key.
  • One passage leads to a Megasphere, and the other leads to an Invincibility Sphere. These power-ups are best saved for challenging encounters, such as the Cyberdemon.
