Walkthrough[edit]
"As you come through the opening doors, unload some long-range ammo on the Cultists before they ride close enough to fire on you. There are Hell Hounds running around this outside area, too. Run up to the facility and fight your way into the guard tower where you will find a bunch of Tommy Gun ammo and a Skull Key to access the main building. You can also skip this key and enter the main building on the left side by shooting out the windows to the Eye Key room. Inside the main building you'll need to grab the Eye Key through the only unlocked door. Outside the door, Zombies have filled the hallway. Access the medical lab at the end of the hall with your Eye Key. Grab the Dagger Key inside (watch out for the Choking Hand), the Tesla Cannon, and the Doctor's Bag from the metal medical supply closet. Exit the lab and kill more Zombies. Go through the Dagger Door and head underground to the saucer. Step into the light and you will appear inside the ship. Open the door (many Choking Hands are inside) and get the Spider Key. Watch out for the Gill Beast that appears in the saucer and head back out. Return to the main hallway in the building and go through the last remaining door. You will head underground again. There is some ammo to the left by the barrels and a long passage to the right. Go past the Spiders and clear out the passage and the boiler room. Grab the Fire Key and hit the switch on the boiler. The boiler will overheat and explode very soon so run past the rising Zombies and get back to the upper floor via the stairs. When the explosions have stopped, run through the opening the explosions created in the rock wall and continue through the dark. Defeat all the creatures in the flashing red area (and there are quite a few - save ammo for the Mother Spider), and be sure to stand away from the pillar of flesh when you kill the Mother Spider since explosions will go off. Drop into the hole behind the flesh pillar and fall into the water. Climb out onto the concrete and go up the stairs to the end of the mission." — Bloatoid's Guide
