Thanks! I tried to see if I could get what was in the column from several different angles. No go. I suspected as much about the Burrick gate, just wanted to make sure. I have lots of keys now. There isn't a lock that I can see. Did I just miss it? Do I try to unlock the switch, or the door?

Another question. In the area with the fountains and all of the bedrooms for the brothers, there's one room with a secret trapdoor in the ceiling. When I got in there there was just a bunch of crates. Anything there I missed? I loved the convoluted secret in the fancy mansion in the center of that area! Good job (I love secrets!)

The lock is a little hard to see sometimes. Look in the same position on the other side of the door, the rest will explain its self.
As to the secret in the Brother's compound... That's Brother McDorf's attic. He uses it to store empty crates, which attract spiders and rats. That's about it lol.

What is the pirate with the white shirt for?
Hes the only one left and he doesnt respond to seeing me, and he dies with one hit.

hmmm, I think I'm going about this the wrong way. The only way I could see to get out of the cell area was to open the zombie freezer and then hide. Trouble was all hell broke loose and seemingly dozens of guards came from all over the place and got their asses whupped, then a combat bot that shoots rocks came along and kept blasting the zombies while they were on the ground until there were so many rocks lying on the ground I couldn't move.
hehehe

Ways to get out of the cell area:

#1. As soon as the game starts, LOOK BEHIND YOU. No, closer. Closer... yes, right there, go that way.
#2. On the lower diff levels: Hide behind pillar closest to right wall, snatch key from guard, wait till guard is walking back the way he came on the other side. Open cell door, sneak into room immediatly to the left. Get sword, sneak in till you can close the door (The pony-tailed guard won't see you), close door & whack guard. Run back to cell and wait for key guard to walk past again, then backstab him too.
#3. Like #2 above, get key from guard. Wait till he's going the other way then run to the door directly across from the cell on the left.

That big Zombie vs Guard battle is AWESOME! I then kept luring 2 or 3 zombies off to where some other guards were, and get them to start fighting each other while I hide in the shadows and watch the carnage!

YES!!! That was brilliant design! It was a little trickier than it seemed. If the guards swarmed en masse they would overwhelm the zombies (after awhile the zombies froze and never moved again). I played this FM through TWICE just so I could do the zombie massacre again.
First I lured the single guard to follow me when the bot wasn't looking. The zombies took care of him fine. Then I made the four guards in the gambling room mad. They ran after me and chased me into one of the open cells. I ran around and around until the zombies followed us in as well then I dashed out and locked them all in. It was so sweet. I could stick my tongue at them while they whaled away at the bars.
It's very tricky to get them all into the cell and get out and lock the door before they can slip out too. It took me several tries but was well worth the trouble.
