This is a great mission thus far, but I am embarrassed.... I'm stuck near the very beginning of the mission. I've made it through the sewers, and climbed up to the Inn, gathered my things, read the fences letter on the table. Then have been wandering around in circles for hours now. Can't find any extra keys, except or the ones in the officers quarters in the first part of the mission. I found a cottage for the Book keeper, but cannot get in there, and no key or window to get in, and no key in the guard quarters. And ideas? :)
I also did find the....... Forgot that I can blackjack the Garden House door, and figured out where the sewer holes in there as well as the basement of the In lead to... Still not able to get to the original area I started to get the gate key, since lock picks won't open it.

The guardhouse should not be locked, so either go in the through the front door, or go inside below from the canal where you started. Get a sword objective is in the guardhouse.

Please note that most doors that are locked (and not pickable) have another entrance somewhere in the mission. Just explore wherever you can, and you may later find an alternate route to these areas ;)

Use rope arrows to traverse the locked city gates. Each gate has a proxy lock on one side or the other that can be lockpicked as well.

Hi there!

The south key can be had in the canals. Look for access to a certain basement there with a nasty creature.

Use the flower on the haunted painting in the main gallery hall. This will make it possible for you to get the West key.

But you lost me with the earth ball in the glass thing. Sounds like you are in the wrong area to remove the curse of the hammer.. are you talking about the Lost City area? You actually need to go to the lower level of the Pagan exhibit to remove the curse.;)

found the west key :),but my hammer is gone due to the fact i accidently frob it where book went,so i cant cure ,but still trying for last key where is main hallway? where i use those,i went all around gallery and saw no painting i can frob?is it nside the tour?

You will be happy to know I have fixed the hammer frobbing issue so it shouldn't disappear if used on the wrong object - I'm playtesting it right now, and will upload a new version later tonight. Not that that helps you now.. but wanted you to know ;)

Not inside the tour, but on the 2nd floor of the main gallery area, where you first come into the gallery.. look by the dead guard who is hanging over the railing for that painting.

I'm having a fun time so far (on Expert) but now I'm stuck - I can't get through the "Employees Only" door in the Gallery to enter it proper, and I can't go the long way back either.

I'm probably just missing a key somewhere, any hints on where to look?

This is bound to become a classic! Great FM. It reminds me of the first mission in the Black Frog campaign, only bigger :) .

IIRC, that door opens automatically after you have found a secret room in the admin area of the Gallery. I think it is off the manager's office.

Bigger hint:

Look for a frobbable book in a bookcase.

But you should also be able to go back the long way if you readjust the levers or climb through a window back out to the canal.

hint [spoiler]I had trouble with this bit too...search the priest's office[/spoiler]

bigger hint [spoiler]in the priest's office behind the desk...frob the stained glass. I missed this because I just didn't notice the window highlight.[/spoiler]

Use the hammer library key (should be named this - it's the one from the priest's office) on the hammer in the library. This will open a secret area in the library, and in there you will find another hammer key, which you should use on the coffin

:)

Thanks for the fast help, that did the trick. I wondered why the office was locked with nothing behind, the glass is really hard to see.

Anyway, I went through the undead area, putting everyone down and winning the first statue *yay*, but now I can't "continue the tour" through the red portal, frobbing, running, jumping, nothing works?
