Wow, I don't know how I missed this FM when it was released, but this thread popping up made me realize that I hadn't played it yet. I just remedied that situation, and am VERY glad I did!
I sold my very large box full of old Nintendo games and console last year in a yard sale, and this mission reminded me just how much I miss them. This had that same cutesy, happy, peppy, friendly feel as many of my old Nintendo games, and it was great fun! The 2nd mission was my favorite because I love the "little big world" setting with lots of rope arrows required and wish there were more FMs that used it.
Thanks Sliptip and Digi! Loved it! :D:thumb:

The filename is 8Nov - but the Wiki says the latest release date is 15 Jan 2012 - no idea where to get update patches from.
Forget about that release date 15 Jan 2012. That must be a problem on the Wiki.
I found a couple of OLD missions that have a date like
Jan 15/16 2012 which have not been updated in years. And that specific Wiki page has not been updated in months.
No idea where it gets these timestamps from.
For sure Nov8 is the latest version.
And yes, Ricebug, (
http://www.ttlg.de/de/download/navigation/FM-Download.xml) TTLG.de has all the missions - except for just a few older missions and updates. ;)
Hell, I wished that the admins of both Thiefmissions.com and TTLG.de would find the time to update their sites with the list of missing/outdated missions that I point them to... but I guess that effort is in vain. Or at least they could PM a reply that I should stop bothering them :p
No idea why I keep maintaining these lists:

Have finished it only now, this mission is a true wonder and something very unusual. A product of professional quality in every way. 5 hours well spent. :thumb:

in the second mission "the castle", I can get higher on the shelves after the canon.... any suggestions?
edit: Never mind... apparently there's a hole in the corner where you have a clean shot.

Just played through this after seeing it mentioned in a recent thread about Cel shading... FUN!
How many easter eggs are there in total, and do you get something for finding them all?

If I remember right there are like 24. I could be off a bit. But I do know you get a reward for finding them. You will get it at some point in the 2nd mission.

Just played this as well for the first time. Enjoyed it immensely, I must say. It certainly didn't feel like Thief at all! Incredibly creative:thumb:

http://www.bogadocious.com/thief/walks/walks.html) here, also cover "Fables of the Penitent Thief". 25 easter eggs are listed there, including their locations. Neither this walkthrough nor my writings about that mission say anything about whether you get anything for the eggs.
