In this entry, we finish up the treasure hunt in Episode 4 before getting Episode 5 started.
The treasures in this game work much like they do in Sly 2: they will be in certain locations in the episodes, and you'll have to go out of your way to find them, interact with them to grab them, and bring them back to the hideout without getting hurt by the enemies. Sadly, there is no way to get them show up on the Select screen map. Unlike that game, where some items were on timers and others were not, all of the treasures are on timers and you'll have a certain amount of time to get a treasure back to the hideout. The amount of time that you get depends on the treasure.
Each episode - not counting the Paris prologue and epilogue - has 12 treasures in all, leading to a total of 60. There are also a few Trophies for going for all the treasures along the way.
I also create some rules of my own for the treasure collection videos as well.
1. There are no practice runs. Everything that is done is done on the fly.
2. You will need all of the costumes before even attempting to get all of these.
3. There is a total of twenty (20) minutes to collect treasures per video. Whether any more time is needed to get one more treasure is a matter of discretion.
4. The timer only starts after exiting the hideout and gameplay begins.
5. In case a return to the hideout is needed to get away from enemies or to switch episodes, the timer is suspended. The timer is only restarted once the hideout is exited again and gameplay begins again.
6. After the twenty (20) minutes are up, we get to read the treasure descriptions and rotate the treasures.
GamesRadar made for some pretty good notes on how to find everything; you can find them here.
9. Stained Glass Compass
Unlike the other treasures, you'll need Sir Galleth to get this one, as only he can ascend the tower in the northeast part of the map. Scale the tower to find this, then be ready to run and hopefully not run into searchlight enemies on the way back.
10. Silver Mug
There is a cellar and a ramp where this treasure is located. Be careful getting this, as there may be a searchlight enemy here and some more nearby. If there are, take them all out before grabbing the treasure. From here, you can easily run back to the hideout, provided the searchlight enemies don't give you a hard time.
11. Golden Anvil
You'll also need to play as Sir Galleth to get this treasure, which is south of the center of town. There is a rope bridge between the village area and the castle area close to the tower where you find this one; if you can use it, it will definitely cut the time it takes to get back to the hideout.
12. Magic Potion
This is behind an Ancestor Door in the southeast part of the map, and will require the Archer Costume to get to. You'll need to break a box in order to uncover the bucket with the rope arrow. You can also paraglide to the door from the top of a ship. Once you get the treasure, use the catapult to get back to the mainland, then rush to the hideout.
Episode 5: Forty Thieves
1. 101 Ways To Cook a Scorpion
South of the hideout is a rope arrow bucket. Use the Archer Costume to get to the Ancestor Door, then get the treasure back to the hideout.
