Pedro, use your sword. Do you have a bucket already? Think: Bucket, hot water, something to melt ...

Personally I prefer using the blackjack.

Another excellent mission, Haplo! (Though I've yet to go back & find the 6 devilishly-hidden secrets I missed.)

I thought the story was exceptionally well done, as were the 'flashbacks' & the ways of finding entrances to various buildings.
And you must have used almost every available / appropriate AI skin for the Sleepers :D
Had trouble picking from the sound where AI were coming from sometimes. And, in a couple of places, I heard the "party crowd" sound - which had me wondering what the "Sleepers" were actually up to ;)

It'll be great if all the entries are this good!

It killed me to wait this long to play this one (finals week and all that), but holy F was this worth the wait! Awesome mission once again Haplo! I only got hopelessly stuck once (A NEW RECORD!!!), and that was just me being dense- great puzzles in this one, as per the usual!
Anywho, my favorite parts:

1. Number one, easily, is the noble sitting on the chair who spins his head around Exorcist-style to look at you. My pants are officially soiled.
2. Next-most-awesome was definitely the ghost sightings. Your ability to produce truly great scripted scenes has increased incredibly Hap, these were REALLY well done! The apartment with the little girl ghost singing to her doll gave me some serious heebie jeebies.
3. Again, the puzzles. The brain teasers in your missions are always killer, these kept that standard high. I especially like how you wake the sleepers- that was really, really, really....good (my vocabulary is broken).
4. The story. PRETTY TOUCHING, BRO. I might have cried a single masculine man-tear at one point. Then again, maybe it's just allergies.

Great to see more FMs from you Haplo! DON'T EVER STOP. :grr:

Thanks, and great to see you enjoyed it!

Now if I don't see a review of this mission in the next two days you'll hear from my flunkies. Does your private healthcare cover broken kneecaps?

Thanks Gloria, i turn out to figure out that i should use the sword, but where´s the damm bucket to place in the sit? Something to melt? where?

:cheeky::cheeky: You'll find the bucket in a small apartment in the Northquarter area. To use it: find the letter in the house of Lord Ayden ..... think: Locket in wax .... bucket .... hot water.

Pedro, after using the wax with hot water and getting the locket, the objective ticks off. If you don't have an objective concerning the locket it means you missed a letter inside the mayor's house. It is upstairs in a cabinet next to the staircase.
