Fire Scirocco is the fourth and final level of Dark Terror. This level features a Wind Tunnel, though it appears different than the ones found in Quake, the Wind Tunnel is made out of Bars creating a sort of cage-like structure instead of the hollow cylinder seen in the base game. Beyond the differences in geometry, the Wind Tunnel functions in the same manner as the ones found in Quake. Beyond the Wind Tunnel, this level also features a Leap of Faith moment where the player must jump a seemingly impossible gap.
The player must find their way up a tower to press some Floorplates in order to open up the corridor to the exit. This level brings back the Enforcer. This level also brings back the Vore on Normal and higher difficulties.

Demo
This is the level that the first Demo is played. The level is played with the default equipment of 25 Shells and a Shotgun. An Enforcer can be seen patrolling in front of the player, who is named "Symbol". The player moves to the right and begins firing, missing the Enforcer but alerting it to the player's presence. The player fires twice at the Enforcer, damaging it, before strafing to the opposite side of the room to avoid the Enforcer's projectiles. The player hits the Enforcer once more as he turns and start strafing across the room. The player moves to the middle of the room as they kill the Enforcer. The player moves to collect the Cells dropped by the Enforcer, then enters the next room. He moves to the right to collect the Nails, then ascends the staircase to his left. He turns left at the top to ascend once more, then starts to turn left once more to aim at a Grunt. The first shot knocks the Grunt back, the second shot kills it. The player has continued to move without stopping and goes towards the left wall to collect 2 Shells. The player at the same time is turning right to aim in a doorway at another Grunt. The Grunt and player miss each other with their initial shots. The player then realigns and kills the Grunt by shooting it twice. The player goes through a doorway and crosses a bridge to the opposite side. Entering the next room, the player turns right towards an Ogre and Enforcer. The shoots the Ogre one time, then changes to focus on the Enforcer while the Ogre is knocked back while moving close to their position. The Ogre gets out of its stun and fires a projectile at the player, causing Splash Damage to hit all those around while knocking the player's Health to 68. The player backs up towards the Wind Tunnel, getting the message "You can jump up here", while the Ogre and Enforcer start to Infight. The player continues firing at the Ogre while moving closer, causing it to focus on the player once more. The player moves in to collect the 25 Health near the Ogre, bringing his Health up to 93. Almost immediately after collecting the 25 Health, the Ogre swings his chainsaw, lowering the player's health back to 69 while the player strafes past the Ogre. The player moves into the corner as he and the Enforcer kill the Ogre. The player strafes left and fires a shot to try to hit the Enforcer, but the Enforcer moves towards the player's prior position in the corner. The player beats the Enforcer to the corner by strafing back, but moves too far and thus misses with his second shot as well. The player turns around as he runs alongside the wall, avoiding the Enforcer's projectiles. The player then fires twice to finish off the Enforcer. The player collects the dropped Rockets and Cells, then moves to focus on the Wind Tunnel as the message "You can jump up here" reappears on the screen.
The player turns around inside the Wind Tunnel to view it from all directions. Facing the room, the player jumps up to reach the platform above. A Floor opens as the player ascends to allow entry, then closes once more so that the player can land on the platform. The player starts turning right towards a Grunt. The player gets hit by the Grunt before he can react, losing 16 Health. The player moves back into some Nails, then kills the Grunt by shooting it twice. The player collects the Nails and dropped Shells, then follows the platform to the next doorway. The player runs forward, directly into the path of an Ogre. The Ogre goes use its chainsaw, but the player shoots it to temporarily knock it back as the player backs up. The player moves a little closer and fires once more, but the Ogre responds by firing a projectile of its own. The player runs back to avoid the projectile, but his attempt is unsuccessful and he drops to 21 Health. The player moves in to shoot the Ogre again, knocking it back. The player moves directly in front of the Ogre as he shoots it again. As the Ogre gets out of its stun, the player backs up once more. The player moves directly in front of the Ogre as he fires again, this time the Ogre does not get knocked back. Instead, the Ogre swings its chainsaw, lowering the player's Health to 7 as he fires again to stop the attack. Symbol rushes past the Ogre, but turns back as the Ogre swings its chainsaw again. The player tries to fire at the Ogre desperately, but hits a nearby wall. Symbol is destroyed by the Ogre. The tally screen is shown as Symbol lies dead, then the Demo ends.
