![]() Secrets often contain special “ore”, that you will find in the levels and the point of this resource is to use it in a shop to buy new weapons and abilities, like a double jump or a dash. So, some of the secrets can be missed if you just pass a point of no return in the level. But in general the game is extremely linear and if you’re supposed to revisit the early part of the level later, the game will open a new shortcut for you to get there, while the way back might be permanently locked unless you replay the level. ![]() The exploration is somewhat present, as are additional blockers like keycards and other things that you have to do first before the way to your goal will open. Enemies are extremely similar in behavior and attacks to the ones you’d find in Doom II, so if you’re familiar with that classic, the game will click with you very quickly. Every weapon has some sort of secondary fire function and for most of the game you will find most of weapons useful and will switch between them according to the situation.
