List of secret areas.
Secret Levels
-------------
Game 1: The Cathedral
While in the yellow area, go up the stairs to the green area. Keep to the right
and make your way to the platform that overlooks the yellow area. Operate the
switch, and then jump off. Now go back up the stairs again, go back toward the
platform, and this time you will notice an extra passage on the left that wasn't
there before.
Game 2: The Ice Grotto
After you have defeated everything in the blue area, use the teleport to go
back to the yellow area. The door at the back will now be open.
Game 3: The Azure Fortress
When you enter the green area, go ahead past the cages, then veer to the left.
Follow this passage to the end, at the yellow staff. Now start going back, and
on the right will be a passage that wasn't there before. Go in, and operate the
switch at the end, then go back to the yellow staff. A new passage will be behind
the staff.

Using DOSBOX
Dosbox mostly works, but there's bugs.
1. The floor/ground can turns into odd parallax lines. Then it's only a matter of time before the game eventually locks up or crashes.
2. On level 6M1, the game will very likely crash when you're around the 2 drop wardrobes that hide 4 enemies and a switch.
