Old Time Religion is the third mission of The Foothills, taking place at an abandoned church building. It introduces the Assault Rifle, and is where the first boss, Intoxigator, is fought.

Main Areas[ | ]

Starting Area[ | ]

The level starts at the front of a church building. The church door requires a Yellow Key. To the right of the door, there is a Shotgun. From the left of the church is a Pistol. To the right of the church is a graveyard, which contains a second Pistol as well as the Yellow Key. From the back of the church, to the right is a shed and a door which requires a Red Key. To the left of the back is a garage which requires a Red Key to enter. To the left of the garage are two Mages and a Possessed Scarecrow. To the right is another Shotgun. The back of the garage has a door which requires a Blue Key.

Church[ | ]

Once you have the Yellow Key, you can enter the church. You do not need the Yellow Key, however, as you can simply break the windows and use a prop to get in. Inside the church there are four Mages. There is a boarded up hole, which leads to a passageway. Inside the passageway, there is a Gasoline Can along with a few other props.

Underground Catacombs[ | ]

From there, the passage leads to a room with a Rat inside and a boarded up doorway. Through that, we enter a room with an Assault Rifle. Picking up the Assault Rifle causes a large amount of Rats to start pouring out through the doorway. After dealing with that, there is a hallway with a Mage to the left, a Rat to the right, and a room with tons of Mages to the right. Inside said room, there is a boarded up doorway and a ladder leading to a pool of water. Inside the doorway, is a room with a Blue Key door and the Red Key. After picking up the Red Key, you should head into the pool of water, which will lead you to an area with three Black Phillips and a Red Key door. The Red Key door leads back to starting area, from there you should interact with the Red Key door on the garage.

Pit[ | ]

Interacting with that door does not open the door, but it creates a pit below you. This pit leads to a room with a Mage elevated in front of you, and two to each side. Pulling the switch opens two doors, each containing a Mage. From there there is a jump pad which takes you to the garage, inside which are three Leathernecks and the Blue Key. After defeating them, you open the Blue Key door, this time the door opens. A door of the shed has opened, revealing three Possessed Scarecrows. Inside that shed is another hole which leads back to the first room of the catacombs. In the room to the right of the hallway, there is now an opened area revealing a Leatherneck and a Mage. After that, you go to the room where you found the Red Key, and open the door.

Intoxigator Arena[ | ]

From the door, there is a room with two Mages. Even further, there is a room with two Rats. After that, go back to the room which you entered in the first place, and then slide underneath a grate. This leads you to a large silo, which leads to a room with a few Mages and a Hallowed Health. After this, the next room is where you will fight your first boss, Intoxigator. After that, a switch can be pulled to open the door, which leads to the exit, which is a door. Interact with it to head into the next level, E1M4: Steamworks.
