This reminds me of a Sega Genesis game... But when I tryied to download the game, the site was either down or badly written and not allowing FireFox.

Must have been the former. I use Firefox as well, and I could access the site and the download just fine.

I got it on my second try. Great game. :P

Too bad it's so easy and so short though. Also, some of the skills doesn't make sense and serve no real purpose. Easier coffer picking, for example... The only time my pick ever broke was in the practice room, and I was doing that only because I wanted to see what it does when it break...

I only have the last two missions to do with the hat rating and then I'll tackle the master challenge. What about you guys?

It's a nice, simple action/puzzle game. I would like more missions though. One major annoyance I had was that when you cut wires, you have no idea which one to cut. The only way to reduce the odds of setting an alarm off is to increase your skill.

The best approach is to remember which wire to cut.  It doesn't change from retry to retry.  If you're going for a good rating (a no alarms one) you should learn which wires to cut alongside all the other things you need to remember.

Got to agree with the wire cutting dealie.
It's not a great system.

@eagle
The last two missions are nasty.
Haven't got hats on em either, but I reckon it'll be a frustrating process on that 2nd last one.  :P
It's easy to slip up on that one.

The wire cutting is tough and yeah I think its best to go through a mission, write em down the colours for later and then try again, its mostly about understanding and learning Trilby's movement patterns and learning how to react fast to the cameras and guards if you want to get the trilby rating, plenty of speedruns on youtube too, if you wish to see it in action.

How about an extra challenge for all you guys that say it's too easy?
The Legendary No Upgrade Game.
You must finish the game using only Trilby's default skills.

Much harder!  :P
