Behind the third tree is a teleporter to the "yard of strange-looking heads", which includes enemies of various sizes from tiny Arachnoids and Beheaded Kamikazes to giant Kleer Skeletons and Reeban Electro-Fishes. In the next courtyard, with the minigun, there are some trees on the left.

In the temple with the scary mask, as you enter it, look to the right.Opposite of #4, in the upper leftmost corner, pick up the health pill to trigger a secret "bloodbath" (spawns 3 Major Bio-mechanoids on top of the walls).In the upper rightmost corner of the first courtyard (near the temple), there's a darker section on the wall to the left.Opposite of #2, there are some cannonballs in the lower leftmost corner of the courtyard.After exiting the starting area, follow the wall to the right and cut down the tree near the house, revealing a secret area with a Large Health.Blow up the statue to return back to the area you teleported from.

Sam, having acquired the crystal skull, makes his way to the large Mayan city of Teotihuacan. 3.1 Serious Sam HD: The Second Encounter.Overall if your looking for something thats not as serious as Half Life 2 or Quake 4 and more macho than Master Chief (amazingly thats actually possible!) then Serious Sam is for you. You find yourself working through each area just to see what new weird looking thing will attack you next, but even this wears thin. You see, because Croteam have made the game so simple, Serious Sam 2 becomes very repetitive very quickly, all it involves is moving from one location to another shooting everything in site as fast as you can, sometimes you get to use turrets or vehicles but its the same idea still and its only the games weirdly ingenious creature designs that keep you entertained. Croteam have made Serious Sam 2 as simple as a modern day FPS can be in order to make it fun, and its this simplicity that is also Serious Sam 2’s downfall. Theres no thinking about your surroundings, you don’t have to worry too much about ammo, theres not much chance that you’ll get lost or come across a dead end in any of the levels.

The game itself is very on rails, aside from a few small secrets, it really is how the original Doom would be gameplay wise if it was released this generation, well minus the Mars setting and hellspawn. In one particular section early on, a tribe leader refers to Sam as Samus, which appears to annoy big Sam a little. Heck in the opening of the game it makes a joke of itself when Sam notices NETRISKA (a computer implant in his head) suddenly has a voice, to which it responds “We have a bigger gaming budget now” But not only does it have a dig itself but at other games too. Get ready to grab a gun and blow $#!%up….again!” So how is the games title misleading? Well Serious Sam 2 is far from being a serious game. The title of the game is a bit misleading, don’t misunderstand this game, in fact the back of the box spells out exactly what this game is like “Bigger Guns! Weirder Enemies! Pick up where Sam “Serious” Stone left off as he battles the hordes of minions of Mental, the biggest, most evil guy in the Universe.
