Please tell me where the crowbar is located on Easy. I'm at a loss. Played before on all levels. :(
Many Thanks!
There is, in any difficulty levels:

I, with everyone else, toss accolades for the FM, but WTG on the SSQ.
Funny how there are only 5 Sensut FMs but they seem to pervade every inch of the Thief FM universe. Other authors throw their all into the first one or two missions of a campaign only to rush through any remainder (sry, it shows) but Sensut has that priceless gift of vision and discipline for follow-through - thanks so much!

Excellent FM: design, ambient, gameplay. :thumb: Well hidden loot. I found only 4086.
But low level of difficulty as regards AIs and... not needed to add the holy fountains on Expert.

My favorite kind of mission, both beautiful and scary! I love it! But I only dare to play it when my husband is home :o ...

I'm in love with everything about this mission, Sensut. The architecture, lighting, game play, puzzles - absolutely first-rate. But I am running in circles now, and help is needed:
1. Is there a key for all those metal grate doors? I have found other ways to access some of the rooms, but it would be nice to be able to unlock all those doors, too. Are they supposed to unlock?
2. How do I break the chain that highlights on the one metal grate door? I tried the chisel, some hammers - nothing I have found works.
3. I have a lot of torch lighters. Are they just for extra light to explore the rooms or for some other reason?
4. How many hits does it take to kill those demons? Will they only die by the sword?

So:
1. Any doors can be opened somehow ... Which grates you mean?
2. You can cut that chain with the sword.
3. Torch lighters are only for torches or candles. There are not many roles in the color version, but the original b&w version is much darker and they might be needed :D .
4. Use mines, flashbombs or holy water against demons and ghosts. You can kill them with sword as well, but it's a bit difficult, you need to beat them a lot. Once the 2 musicians are destroyed the ghosts disappearing, so concentrate to the musicians.redleaf on 7/1/2013 at 12:07

Thank you so much for the helpful answers.
About the doors I cannot unlock:
There's a picture below. All that type of door, a cemetery gate style. I can't open any of them. Been running in circles looking for a key. Am I wasting my time? Is there one key to open them all, or am I missing a lot of keys? :confused:

Aha! You need the master key from the crematory office (is on the dead monk's belt).

Sensut, you are a master mission author! I spent almost 8 hours on this mission, mostly just taking my time after dispatching the ghouls to look around and admire your handiwork. How do you do all this work by yourself?
I managed to finish without the master key, and was shocked to discover I found ALL the secrets and almost all the loot as well as finished every objective. I thought for sure I would come up short! It is thanks to you for making a mission so wonderful to explore.
Next time I will play on Expert and hope I remember about the master key.
Hope you enjoyed your evening as much as I did mine! :thumb:

Just finished on expert, whoop! All secrets and objectives, missing 1 loot (probably one dinky little crystal lying in a corner somewhere, grr).
That was excellent, thoroughly entertaining and satisfying. Favourite feature: zombies stay down permanently, thank jebus for that. I loved how the different areas were connected together, maybe with the exclusion of overabundant ladder shafts in the later tombs-lost city part.
Keep on doing what you're doing!
