Cemetery is the first level of Painkiller: Heaven's got a Hitman chapter 1. It is also the very first level in the whole Painkiller franchise.

Description[]

This level is an eerie nighttime cemetery. It is made up of several areas, which all are separated by tall, stone walls. Iron gates separate the starting area from the main area. All graves are heavily clustered, but neatly positioned in lines and vary in sizes and styles. Three areas feature tombs that have armor and ammo pickups inside. Some areas are littered with urns and coffins that can be broken for gold. The largest and most dominant building in the level is a church, which is located at the far end of the main area and is accessed after the final checkpoint. Its interior is pretty spacious, allowing the player to fight 'Black demon' and other enemies with little difficulty, without risk of being cornered. The church walls are decorated with decaying fresques. A round stained glass window depicting Christ is above the entrance. Two mutilated bodies are also hanged from the ceiling. Ambience noises include wolf howling, crow cawing and occasional screaming, which all form this levels frightful atmosphere.

Monsters[]

This level is inhabited mostly by undead monsters that include:

Secret Location Description Video

Secret 1 Chapter 1 Level 1 - Cemetery - Secret 1 Secret with level's sole holy item. Located in the first area after the first checkpoint on the tomb's roof. It can be easily noticed, as it glows bright yellow and stands out of the dark surroundings. It can be reached by overturning the nearby lamppost and climbing it up. Video
Secret 2 Chapter 1 Level 1 - Cemetery - Secret 2 The second secret consists of a Mega Health concealed within a cracked wall of a little structure in one small sub-area of the cemetery, after the fourth checkpoint. To reach it, the player has to recover an explosive barrel from the previous collapsing structure's sub-area and roll it to the aforementioned wall. Blowing up the barrel near the wall will allow the player to pick up the Mega Health and discover another secret area. Video
Secret 3 Chapter 1 Level 1 - Cemetery - Secret 3 The third secret is located behind the left wall in an area full of banshees, after the fifth checkpoint and has 3 mega ammo packs. To reach them, the player again has to use an explosive barrel, which is in a corner behind the tomb. Video
Secret 4 Chapter 1 Level 1 - Cemetery - Secret 4 The fourth secret is located in an area with foggy ground and with the largest tomb in the map, after checkpoint 6. It is a golden armor, which is simply discovered by walking into the small building after clearing the area from enemies. Video

Strategy[]

As it is the first level of the game, there should not be any difficulty completing this level. However, on higher difficulties it can be pretty easy to find yourself cornered by a lot of enemies and hacked to death. Even more, tight spaces and graves often obstruct movement, which can take away large chunk of health if any enemy catches the player while he/she is stuck. To avoid such situation, it is advisable not to rush and memorize the layout of area, as blind quick-jumping will often lead to gang of skeletons or tight spaces which are hard to escape from. The Painkiller weapon is great in this level, as it can simply stop any charging enemies. Note: Bunny hopping is easy and WILL save you multiple times.

Trivia[]

  • Many graves have Polish writings, mainly because the game was developed by Polish video game developer studio People Can Fly (2013-now known as Epic Games Poland).
  • The old boss of the Cemetery in the early alpha of the game was Banshee_CemeteryBoss which is a bigger version of the Banshee with more health and it will never move nor attack the player, but she has been used later in the Haunted Valley level from Painkiller Overdose.
