Rumble Walkthrough: Gloom Keep (E1M5) Video Walkthrough (All Secrets)

At the start of this level you'll want to grab both secrets and clear all enemies in the area to the right. We'll be coming through this area later and we need to clear the first spawn of mobs now. Return to the castle and enter it, follow the linear route to the large 3 story room with the Silver Key door in the basement. Take the left route first, this brings you directly to the Silver Key.

Once you have the Silver Key, drop through the hole and you will end up in the same 3 story room. This time take the right route up the stairs and grab the Super Nailgun, do Secret #3 and Secret #4 while you're here to get Quad Damage, it'll make the next fights easier. When you go through the portal after secret 4 you'll be placed in front of the Gold Key, grab it and you'll have to fight a Shambler immediately.

Defeat the Shambler and return to the Silver Key door, use the Silver Key to unlock it and hit the button. Ride the elevator up, use the Gold Key and fall down into the pit - you'll find the exit portal in here.
