Just finished this one. Since I got into the castle first I didn't grab the bow there in order to continue the game and explore the nice little town around.![]()
Looted 3395/3678.

Very good mission! Is there a way to explore the tunnels any further or is that going to be part 2? I really liked the Bafford Manor vibe all throughout, and almost get all the loot. Almost![]()
Glad you liked it! Regarding your question: no, the tunnels and sewers won't be fully explorable until later.
Great mission. Plenty of good manor exploration. Multiple choices for goals. Lots of different routes and roping (my favorite).
I don't think I had a single complaint with this one, which is really rare. Most missions, no matter how good, usually have something to nit pick.
Can't wait for part 2!
Solid city and manor mission. At the end I was too lazy and played catch me if you can with the guards to get back to the streets quicker![]()
I just finished this mission, and I liked it a lot. It felt kind of like a cross between Bafford's and Ramirez's, but bigger and better than either of those. My only real complaint is one that both those levels also share, and that's the symmetry. I found it somewhat disorienting for a while, because one half of the manor looks pretty much exactly the same as the other making it kind of difficult to navigate. I also never found the bell pull, but was able to get into the vault relatively easily by trial and error. I look forward to the next part!
Fun mission, definitely kept me entertained, lots to explore and decent story line. Atmosphere was a little lacking but overall a good mission. I'd say a 7 out of 10.![]()
I must be missing something obvious - how do I get in the locked doors on the ground floor and upper floors? I've knocked everyone out and not found any more keys. I've been in the vault. But I've only got a side door key and a basement key.
You can shoot a rope at a balcony near the back garden's fountain.
Knew it'd be something really obvious! Thanks!
how did you get into the castle?
edit : solved

a clear structured missison , well done
is it worth to play on expert?
For those who couldn't find the code for the vault in the basement, go back to Alexander the Psychic's store, downtown. You'll probably re-find a book you didn't pay enough attention thenI myself had to make trial-and-error, unfortunately. Then I read back the books into the FM directory, to understand why I had found the good numbers.

Has anyone found the ring that is suspected to have been lost in the park? I seached both park and tunnels for quite a while and didn't find it.
Finished on Normal in around 45 minutes. My goal was to finish the mission as fast as possible, so I did not explore any further after I got the bow. Ended with 2588 of 3678 total loot.
This mission is alright. There are multiple points of ingress to the mansion. Quite a few conversations were recorded that you can eavesdrop in on. Everything works as intended. At the same time, the basic architecture of the mansion interior made exploring it a bit tedious: symmetrical, rectangular rooms with sparse decoration, long corridors with an endless amount of doors on both sides.
I enjoyed playing this mission, thanks. I presume the extensive inaccessible sewers were dropped due to lack of time and will be in part 2?
Yeah, I had to cut out about two-thirds of the mission once I realized I stood no chance of finishing it all by the deadline (I bit off way more than I could chew). A few gates and other obstacles were added to hide the areas that no longer went anywhere.
The portions I cut out were roughly half-finished already, so I'm hoping to get Part 2 completed during the spring, but we'll see.
I had interesting problem while ghosting this mission. I went into the castle right after the servant and the moment I stepped inside I got Objective Complete and... servant start screaming and ran away. So I waited a little more for him to go farther, but when I went inside he ran away again. So I waited 1 minute, went inside, hide in the shadow and after few seconds I heard scream and servant running away from the castle and alerting guards. Then I decided to load hard save. This time I outrun the servant and went into the castle way before him. This time he walked into castle normally without any scene.
can anybody tell me ,where i can get the bow?
The bow is one level up and in the east of the house. It's in the gallery. A key to the gallery can be found somewhere in the upper parts of the house in a chest.
Also, depending on your difficulty level, you may need a rope arrow.
