New Mission
Released April 07, 2008 - Five
Tigers: Eye of the Tiger a mission for T2 by Catman
Updated to version 1.01 on April 11, 2008.
The Mission:
Master Thief Nekosan has been hired to obtain the set of gemstones known
as the Five Tigers. He is off to recover the first of the five stones, the Eye of the Tiger.
This stone is held by the Walker family. He obtained a copy of the Walker key during his
previous adventure on the Iron Butterfly. His employer has provided maps of the heavily guarded
estate to make things a bit easier. He must get that gemstone.
Impressions:
This is the second mission in Catman's six mission Five Tigers series.
This is a wonderful mission for sneaking around. The mansion is riddled with secret passages
which will expedite your travels. You will find written bits of information about the hiding
place of the Eye of the Tiger as well as other treasures hidden throughout the mansion. You
also will need to collect information on how to safely obtain the gem. There are old & new
Mechanist creations to hinder you as well as slew of human guards. As you search, you will find
lots of interesting architecture and beautiful art throughout the mansion. The oriental-styled
animal pictures are especially nice.
Don't expect a quick mission. The map is large, and you need to pay attention to the clues
provided to get to the gem. Overall Eye of the Tiger is a very good mission, challenging and
entertaining. If you haven't played the first mission, Five Tigers: HBS Iron Butterfly,
I recommend you play it first. The story will make a lot more sense as there are references to
the previous mission throughout this one.
Stats:
My first time through this one took me 2 hrs 53 mins. Thankfully, I played on
normal with only 1200 loot required because I was well short of the expert loot objective of
3200. I ended with 2665/4094 loot, 4/10 secrets and 2 bonus objectives. I definitely will have
to play this one again and again!
