Plot Description: "There's a noblewoman who lives in the neighborhood and she owns a valuable
gold skull called The Skull Of Herzeloyde. I will steal it from her tonight.
It should yield a nice little profit. The house is protected by tough guards
so I have to be careful. If they see me I'm in real trouble. Once I'm inside
I will have to locate Liselle, the Lady's handmaiden. She will help me get
the key to the room with the skull. She and I were quite friendly some time back.
I think she's in love with me, but she's not my type really. I'll just play
along until she gives me the key. Once I have the key I will be able to get the
gold skull. Then I plan to slip quietly back out to the streets."

Comments by Andrew Dagilis:
Pros: The overall architecture, the servants's flee points, the rhythm of the gameplay flow.
Cons: The basic premise is verging on the overused; the two puzzles might leave a few players unenlightened.
Bottom line: Though it's a bit derivative at its base, The Skull of Herzeloyde also has several clever wrinkles, is quite well constructed, sports some solid architectural flair, plays fair with THIEF's heist-type conventions and is generally quite a pleasant mission to play..
