The Mayor's Gala

You're a highly-skilled thief and you have your eyes on a new prize. Every year, the mayor hosts a fundraiser gala and you've managed to secure yourself an invitation (with the possibility for a plus one or two, should you need the backup). Without fail, the mayor's wife, Mabel, wears a very valuable pearl necklace for the fundraiser portion of the night. Tonight is the only night that the accessory's safe will not be sealed away. Your new prize is that necklace. Getting to it will be tricky, taking it will be trickier. Can you escape with it? Can be played single-player or co-op. There are two ways to play this escape room. The first involves some sneaking to avoid the mayor's staff who are stationed upstairs to deter wandering guests like yourself. The second involves those same staff members taking a nap in their rooms while you leisurely complete the puzzles and make off with your prize. It's completely up to you to decide how you will complete this challenge. The guide is pinned in the discussions tab and is formatted so that each step is a separate spoiler from the next. Enjoy! :D I got the crossword puzzle in the bedroom here: https://www.kindpng.com/imgv/hoRTxRR_clip-art-crossword-puzzle-template-easy-example-of/
