Drunken Cricket : [SPOILER]in the area with the BIG spider, near a body.[/SPOILER]
Is there any other way [SPOILER]back to the mansion? Only explored part of it & am way short of loot total. :grr: [/SPOILER]

IIRC (and it's been several years since I tested this mission, so it may not be correct) and assuming she didn't change it, you wind up back in the mansion at the end. But don't quote me on that.

I'm glad you are all liking it so far. :D And you have my younger sister to thank for finally getting me back into DromEd to finish this mission. She's been playing it for years and wishing it was an official FM so others could enjoy it ... and finally her nagging has paid off!
Just to let everyone know, there are also two hidden bonus objectives that appear when you complete special tasks, in addition to the three listed secrets. One is pretty easy to find, but the other requires more effort.
Sticky Fingers: [SPOILER]Yandros is correct. When you finish the mission, you are returned to the mansion at the beginning, but the mission ends shortly so you won't have time to explore. However, there isn't really any way to fully explore the mansion beyond the areas you've probably already seen. It is much smaller than it appears. However, if you are short on loot, be sure to grab all the paintings on the walls and check the housekeeper's room on your next playthrough.
At one point, I intended to extend the mansion into a fully playable area, but I quickly ran into the objects limit and other problems so it became a different mission entirely. I'm still working on getting that one finished and I plan on releasing it independently under the title Wicked Relics. It's my favorite DromEd creation so far.[/SPOILER]
Drunken Cricket: [SPOILER]I should have made this key easier to find, I suspect. I'd forgotten the trouble it caused during betatesting - as Sticky Fingers said, you need to look in the cavern with the giant spider. It is a small red key next to a crayman body and a light mushroom. You can retrieve it without alerting the spider if you are careful. And I would recommend that approach, since the spider is quite hard! [/SPOILER]
Good luck everyone!:thumb:

This mission was SO MUCH FREAKING FUN. Just, pure hilarious entertainment the whole way through. It's really more like a crazy theme park ride than an actual FM, this mission is just one crazy set piece after another! Highlights include...oh man...so many...let me think:
[SPOILER]The Hammerite with the holy water fountain coming out of his head (in fact, the whole prison area), the dancing pagans who turn into zombies, the hilarious readables, the rabbit sitting on the throne with the plate of carrots in front of him, the suprise tree beast attack with "beware" written on the wall in loot right before it, the giant spider...[/SPOILER]
...basically everything rocked. Release more FMs soon man, and by "man" I of course mean the figure of speech such as "Man, that movie was awesome!" since you are quite obviously a woman, this one kicked ass! We need more FMs of this variety also, that don't take themselves too seriously and just focus on being fun.
One question, I noticed a section of wall in all three of the cells on the right in the prison area that was obviously the entrance to a secret area, but I couldn't figure out how to open it. Where's that ridiculously well hidden switch?

Thanks for the help (you too Sticky Fingers).
BTW, I took the
giant spider out with one arrow... :ebil:

Nice and very funny mission. :thumb:
[SPOILER]I found one bonus objective (cursed horn of the dance), don't know if they are more bonus objectives, only one secret (the golden bones) and I missed nearly 2000 loot! :wot: [/SPOILER]
But it was very nice to play and I think I make a second run.

This is good fun. Enjoyed the [SPOILER]kangaroo![/SPOILER] And the multi-coloured rabbits? :p
Its nice to see a creative FM for a change.
