Level: Introduction (Welcome To Quake)

• How to reach Nightmare Mode.
  From the start of the level, enter any one of the difficulty selection slipgates. Walk towards episode 4. There will be a pool of water. Fall into the pool and duck underneath the platform you were just standing on. Drop through the water. You will land on a beam of wood above the floor. Walk along the beam into an archway. Walk through the archway and along another passage to the slipgate to reach Nightmare mode!
• The 'Super Secret'.
  id have let it be known there is a "super secret" triggered by an action taken in the introduction level. If you shoot the wall decoration in the passage leading to Nightmare skill level, you are presented with the following message: "THE WELL OF WISHES AWAITS IN THE CRYPT OF DECAY." In fact that doesn't trigger the secret: you can access the secret without shooting anything here. See level E2M3 for further details.
