Dino Trauma: Secrets Guide

Screenshot assisted guide for locating all the secrets in the EA episode.

E1M1: Into the Abyss

This level contains 2 secrets.

1/2 - Once you have the red keycard, get into the server room, take the door on the left and destroy the painting depicting a beach to reveal a hand grenade.

2/2 - As you go through the kitchen, look for an orange-framed painting on the right wall and destroy it to open up a hidden compartment that holds a laser gun.

E1M2: Meltdown

This level contains 2 secrets and an easter egg.

1/2 - Right at the beginning, look for a slightly protruding brick on the wall opposite the valve and hit it two times to open up a hidden compartment in which a pair of SMGs reside.

2/2 - Once you reach the valve that is used to restore power, crouch next to the bars at the end of the tunnel to its left and shoot the barely visible electrical panel to reach the laser gun around the corner. A hand grenade next to the said bars also does the trick.

Easter Egg - As soon as you turn the valve in question, turn around and jump to the left of the platform to find yourself on an invisible path. Continue towards the balcony and open the door to have a James moment.

E1M3: Secret Passage

This level contains 2 secrets.

1/2 - After unlocking the initial gate with the blue keycard, take a right and shoot the barrel next to the destroyed door within the building to access the next room that holds a pair of SMGs.

2/2 - Once you traverse the lower tunnels and resurface on the other side of the complex, look for planks on the ground hidden by vegetation to the right of the red container and destroy them to discover a cache consisting of a laser gun, a first aid kit and assorted ammo.

E1M4: Facility

This level contains 2 secrets.

1/2 - Once you reach the lab via the vents, go through the door on the left and take the stairs to reach the control room. Destroy the painting in the said room to reveal a hand grenade.

2/2 - After exiting the lab via the Level E door, look for planks on the ground to the right of the power grid and destroy them to discover a cache consisting of a first aid kit and a box of shells.

E1M5: Landing Zone

This level contains 2 secrets.

1/2 - In the showers around the first corner, find the slightly protruding piece in the tiling and hit it two times to open up a hidden compartment where a pair of SMGs reside.

2/2 - While traversing the lower floor, shoot the barrel to the right of the door to the pumping station to reveal a hidden alcove with two boxes of SMG ammo.

E1M6: Power Plant

This level contains 2 secrets.

1/2 - After clearing out the initial area, follow the path to the left of the Level C gate until you come across a red container next to the outer fencing. Blow up the locks on its visible side via a hand grenade to reach the pair of SMGs and two painkillers within.

2/2 - As soon as you go down the hatch behind the Level B door, shoot the slightly obscured barrel next to the pipes to reveal a hidden alcove that houses three boxes of shells.

E1M7: Under the Mountain

This level contains only a single secret.

1/1 - Shortly after going through the Level B gate, turn right and throw a hand grenade right into the pile of rocks below the stairs that lead to the red door to reveal a hidden alcove with a laser gun inside.

E1M8: Swamp of Death

This level does not contain any secrets. You already know who the big momma is.

Very helpful, I completed my first playthrough without finding a single one of these secrets, and I'm used to these kinds of games.
