Hi nicol, In Shades of Doom you are holding a door detector that helps you but in Sarah you have to go by the sound of snoring and the shift d key which will tell you how close you are and which direction it is. If you leave the broom cupboard door open you can get in quicker. I did not want the game to be exactly like Shades of Doom, and to have different challenges. In many rooms of the castle, like the anti chamber you will find nothing of value, but since some items are placed at random you may find something. Creating a new area type just for the anti chamber is a time consuming task and I did not want to spend the time doing it when I had the office area already set up. phil
