Our first objective for this mission is to find the Golden Key; this key is found in the water below the door that it unlocks. After obtaining the key, open the door and follow the linear path to a dark dead end. Don't stand in the middle here because a large bolt will be shot out from the wall before a trap door is opened. Fall down the trap door and continue through the sewers to reach another dead end room.

Defeat the Ogre on top of the ledge and then jump up to hit the button. The next dead end you find will have another button, this one you shoot. Ride that elevator up and you will find yourself at the end of the level.

 

Secret #1

Secret #1: When the level starts go straight until you find the chainsaw man behind bars at a fork in the road. Go right at this fork through the short hallway to find a small bridge in a room with some zombies. Jump down into the zombie pit and go under the floor where you see the Nails to find the secret area.

 

Secret #2

Secret #2: Search the water in the room where you get the Golden Key, there will be a hole in the ground which you can swim through to reach the area. If you're having trouble finding this hole - it's on the opposite side of the room as your exit. Meaning, once you grab the Gold Key you must leave through the door on one side of the room, yea? The hole that leads to this secret is on the other side.

 

Secret #3

Secret #3: After you climb the thin ledges to hit a switch and open a door you'll come to a hallway with two Ogres above you that throw down grenades. Defeat them from below and you'll remove the bars protecting a yellow suit of armor. Shoot the wall behind the suit of armor and you'll reveal a portal that lets you get up top to where the Ogres were, this is the final secret area.
