2) The zombie in room 5 (Purgatory) is easier to kill now

Some people find the rope swing mechanic too challenging and this should alleviate frustration to some extent.

I am unable to kill the zombie with one blow of the sword (takes me three).

But as soon as the first blow lands - without the zombie turning to face me - I am 'discovered', and therefore lose.

Any advice please?

C'mon High John. Grab that rope and leave the pitiful zombie behind! You can do it!

Jokes aside, you must be playing version 1 where its health was set to 50 points. You could still kill it with one blow but it was very extremely difficult. In version 2 health was decreased to 1 point and it is easier to kill but if you update to version 2 you must manually delete the previous version and start over from the beginning. The explanation is here.

Okay.  After a holiday break I've come back to this, loaded Version 2, etc.

And I've killed the zombie in one stroke.  Yay.  Er, but how does that help me?!

Don't I still have to do the whole swinging-on-the-ropes thing?

Hello Snatcher
I´ve tried some of your missions a while ago , but had not the inner mindset to do them properly 
as you know i play on hardest difficult and trie to sup.ghost  (ha - what a joke for these missions )
the ones i played up to now , one must accept : to forget about loot , to get a suspicious score or to be hurt .
to know my success i made a screenshot for every mission stats 
here my first request : would be nice to have the mission name in the stats screen !
                                     ( should be an idea for " wishlist for TDM " too )
secondly : there's been discussions for mission 5 "Purgatory"
                  but no one mentioned the things i stumpled 

Spoiler

swinging on the rope and going to jump - i sometimes - made the jump ---
---- and got a new grip on the rope ----- 
 ---- but holding the rope on my backside !!!!!
on First rope

on second rope

the effect is nice - it reduces the distance for the jump .
from the coin in the birds-nest ; one can try to jump to the first rope 
up to now no success to grab it - but to bounce and land without additional hurt .


To keep the rope - i made the 1. jump to the first Rope from the top 
so being hurt on first go and not enough health to do a second 
Whats more worth ? : to get the coin - or - keep the Rope ?   

Vol.2 isn´t in the downloader - downloading here for future reply
