Exit Sign Level (RUN)

[DesertJackrabbit]

As noted in a previous post, this level is very hard and mostly luck. But some skill. The skill comes down to being able to execute near-perfect "runs" down the hallways, while avoiding bumping into any debris. Even one slight misstep, and you're toast.

The best tip for this level is to stay focused on those EXIT signs. If you don't see one down the hall in front of you, prepare to make the next sharp turn, and immediately keep an eye out for the next one. Rinse and repeat until you're through the locking door and have locked it behind you.

The luck bit (especially if playing solo) is finding the key card. I assume their spawn locations are random so there's no trick to finding them other than being very adept at quickly scanning with your flashlight. You simply just have to find one and get to the next key entry as soon as possible.

As is the case with nearly every level in this game, headphones help as stereo-based sound cues are what will keep you alive.

Lastly, if it's any consolation--you will die. Quite a bit, as has everyone else so don't feel bad.

ive been on this level for hours, didn't want to believe it was near impossible, but it is.

when you see the corridor in front without sign, it means that you need to turn based on where it is avaible. Always look for exit sign. If there is no exit sign infront, then you need to turn.

Level run is possible but when you reach the safe room make sure you hit the door button to close it behind you. Its on the wall immediately on the right when you go through the doors.
It buys you time to find the Blue key card.
The second part is harder. I have never found both but supposedly the first safe room has two key cards so if you find both you don't need to search in the second safe room. This is in one of the guides someone posted.
On purgatory the door does not stay shut as long so I would find the first card and run personally.
