By [J7] Dsp21 and 1 collaborators
(Episode 4 Only!) Ever had trouble finding the secret you missed to get 100% on a certain level in Rise of The Triad 2013? Pretty sure all of us did! With this guide, I'll tell you the location of every single secret in the game, sectioned by levels, including text guidelines and images! There will be at least one image per secret, which means there will be a large amount of pictures in the guide.
Guide split into 4 parts due to images not loading correctly.

E4L1: Monky Business
CHECKPOINT ONE: Run Like Heaven

SECRET 1: Right before going into the next checkpoint (there's a Flamewall next to the checkpoint door), you'll find some bronze coins and a little gap between the fence and the wall. Following this ledge will lead you to the secret entrance.



Once inside, collect all the coins and jump into the magical fountain in the center of the secret area to find another room filled with coins! This secret is also accessible by jumping on a jump pad, to the ledge.

SECRET 2: When exploring, even before finding SECRET 1, did you come across this wall with the triad logo?



That's the secret you're looking for! In order to move the wall, you just need to turn the lever found in SECRET 1 (the same one that allows you to exit the secret). The secret is now ready to be explored!



CHECKPOINT TWO: Gibrifice

SECRET 3: After entering the huge area filled with monks, look for two hidden pressure plates underwater.



After pressing them this gate will open, and with it, a good amount of healing items including God Mode!



SECRET 4: In the same area as SECRET 3, there's a building where you get your Gold Key and a Dark Staff. If you look behind the building outside you'll find a Dog Mode!



CHECKPOINT THREE: Sin Reloaded

SECRET 5: You'll find a hidden entrance covered by some large boxes (I already shot them, oops!), in a small area with a Bazooka. If you look closely, you'll find it in no time. Enter for the Dark Staff and Monster coins!

E4L2: Fire and Brimstone
CHECKPOINT ONE: No Remorse

SECRET 1: In the same room where you fight some Uberpatrol, Death Monks and Fire Monks, you'll probably come across this 'window'. Jump inside to find some silver coins and an Asbestos vest!



CHECKPOINT TWO: Stupid Dog Tricks

SECRET 2: As soon as you start this checkpoint, you can pick up a Dog Mode power up. When you do, head to the left side of the screenshot. Here, you'll have 3 doors. When you try to get the Gold Key, all doors, aside from the one in the middle, will open.



If you enter one of these rooms you'll see that there's a hole you can drop down into. Two Large coins, Mercury Mode and an Excalibat are waiting for you!



SECRET 3: This secret is easy; just requires some patience. When you get to the part where you have to pick up the Silver Key, look for this balcony, and use the pillars to climb up to it (which is pretty tricky). Three Monster coins inside. Also, a Fire Monk!



CHECKPOINT THREE: Funky Monks

SECRET 4: Right after getting to this part, you'll see these bricks. Shoot them or interact with them to reveal the fourth secret.



CHECKPOINT FOUR: Based God Mode

SECRET 5: In the very last area of this level, one of the pillars (the first one to the left of where you enter) has a lever. When you activate it, a small room (to the left of the level exit) will unlock. It has a good amount of Monster coins to collect!



E4L2 complete! This is almost done! On to E4L3...
E4L3: Backfire
CHECKPOINT ONE: A Tomb With a View

SECRET 1: At the start of the level, you'll be able to see a platform next to the lava... there's your first secret!



Note: You cannot get this secret when you come back to this section. The lava level will rise when you return to use the Gold Key...

SECRET 2: After you pick up the Dark Staff and move to the next door, you'll come across some boxes. These are hiding the secret!



CHECKPOINT TWO: Crystal Caves

SECRET 3: At this checkpoint, the monks will try to smash you with two walls. Assuming you survive them, look back and go to the right side.



CHECKPOINT THREE: A Boulder Vision

Not a secret, but maybe the biggest of them all! Check this guide quickly written by myself to find the one and only... DOPEFISH!
http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=202545525
SECRET 4: In order to get this 'secret', you're supposed to play like you normally would not! You will have to run from a giant boulder for a good amount of time. Soon, there'll be a hole in the ground where the boulder will fall and get stuck. To find the secret, drop down into the same hole, but remember to run so you don't get smashed with the boulder! (The screenshot isn't very good, but I was running, too!)



Time to face El Zee! E4L4!
E4L4: Circles of Fire
CHECKPOINT ONE: The Two Towers

SECRET 1: At the beginning of the level, you will see a large statue. if you look below, you'll see a hole where you can get an Excalibat, but don't! Search for this pressure plate instead:



The statue will descend to the same level as the secret. Now get your Excalibat and stand on the statue, which will bring you back up again!



You can now choose one of the two doors, named as 'paths', to collect the Silver and Gold key. Picking the Path of Deceit will make you unable to enter the Path of Ire until you complete it.

CHECKPOINT TWO: Path of Deceit

No secrets in here! Just progress in the level like you normally would!

CHECKPOINT THREE: Dafuq

SECRET 2: Time for the last MEGA secret! This checkpoint is long, so it might take you a while to get to this part. There's a room with huge boulders rotating clockwise. In the same room, there's a switch which you can plainly see!



After using the switch, go back to the previous room and you'll notice that it now has more platforms, which you can use to get to the other side of the room. Go get your 24 Monster coins!



CHECKPOINT FOUR: Path of Ire

No secrets here, either. Kill all the enemies, get the Gold Key and be prepared to fight El Zee!

Here we are; final level! Ready to face El Oscuro? Go find out!
E4L5: El Oscuro
CHECKPOINT ONE: The Lair of El Oscuro

SECRET 1: Pick up the Mercury Mode power up (search for another one, because the one in the screenshot activates the boss battle), then fly to the left side of the map.



Look for this 'lavafall' and you'll notice there's a hole you can enter. Say hi to the Sexy Dev Team!



CHECKPOINT TWO: The Dark Nest

Nothing here! Just kill the annoying brat El Oscuro is!

Jokes aside! First of all, I want to thank Apogee and Interceptor Entertainment for this amazing game. It's literally what I play now on a daily basis. Every minute of free time I have now is dedicated to ROTT and taking care of the guide.

But I wasn't the only one in this process... So I wanna thank:

Kappakatt:
For helping me in what comes to spelling errors, grammar, and incorrect use of English. I'm Portuguese, so she helped me have a better looking and easier to read guide. Thanks Kappa!

Rebcart:
Rebcart gave me permission to mention two of his great guides in order to make mine better. A huge thank you for your dedication to this game... I promised I'd give credit!

And in the end, thanks to anyone that supported me in the making of this. And finally, thank YOU for checking the guide. I hope it made all my work worth it! Now go back to save Los Angeles once again... Just DON'T PRESS THE RED BUTTON!

Updates:
December 11st, 2013: The ludicrous secrets guide is now officially complete! We will be back when a new Single Player DLC is released! SOON™? Let's hope!

April 6th, 2014: Updated the guide for v1.4: Secret exits may be used to get 100% in the previous level. E3L1: Robotricks 100% works now. All the achievements unlockable in v1.4

November 18th, 2017: Converted and split the guide into 4 versions, including changing the Steam screenshots to file uploads, visiting my biggest guide... 4 years later! Also chose to revise and change the screenshots to Steam uploads, displaying in half-width.
