Thames Wharf |
Items: 40 |
Kills: 26 |
|
| Welcome to the Thames Wharf district of historic London. The night life is a little seedy, but there's lots of interesting architecture to see and things to do. | |||
Sights to See |
Flowing through the heart of London is the Thames river. Lying along
the river are St. Paul's Cathedral and the Bankside Power Station. On
the Middlesex shore you'll find the buildings of Whitehall, which will
be more reminiscent of Prague than of London, and on the Surrey shore,
you will see workings of the Jubilee Line underground
extension. Your visit will include a tour of one of the wharfs on the Thames. The timing of your visit isn't optimal, since there is a lot of construction going on. We encourage visitors to watch their step. In spite of the mess, be sure to enjoy the night skyline. Don't bother with formal evening attire, all you'll find in this neighborhood are alternative and grunge clubs. Nonetheless, if you want a fashion tip, we suggest that you try basic black. Great for all occasions. If you choose leather, then you'll fit right in. Behave yourself, so as to not get into any trouble with the local constabulary, and enjoy your stay. |

Local Fauna |
Vermin is a problem with most large cities, and London is no exception. Watch for large hungry rats that won't hesitate to nip on your toes. Also in London, you'll find a particularly aggressive breed of crow. | ||
Mercenaries |
The people that you will run into are not what you would call model citizens. Try to stay clear of them, as you can expect that they're nothing but trouble in this part of town. You will encounter mercenaries that are armed like snipers and others that are only armed with hand guns. | ||
Souvenirs
|
You will want to retrieve one flue key to gain access to the furnace of a warehouse building. | ||
Hidden Treasures |
There are five secrets in this level. The first is downright dastardly, as you will have no other reason to visit that portion of the wharf except to retrieve the secret. The next one will be left in plain sight, but the means to reach it is contorted. Don't try to grab it via the direct method. The rest are well hidden and easily missed so take your time, when searching for them. One of the items will be the cathedral key which you will will not use on this level. | ||
Hazards |
The most common way to die is to plummet to your death as a result of taking some misstep. For this reason, you should watch your step and perform the moves with care. Aside from that danger, there is the usual problem of dealing with mercenaries, but there aren't many deadly traps to worry about. | ||
