Session fun rating: 8/10
I completed Episode 4, Of Mice and Mechs. After tracking the Black Knight closely, the team discovered that it was actually Penelope, hiding in a mechanical suit. She is probably a returning character from the previous games, but I've never seen her before. She is a pink animal, a mouse maybe? She definitely has history with Bentley, but they had a fallout somehow. After discovering this, Bentley went into a depression and hid in his shell for a few missions.
Eventually, we took on Penelope head on. She took her mechanical black knight suit and nested it inside a gigantic exoskeleton, armed with missiles and other nasty attacks. As Sly, I had to jump on top of large scaffolds while avoiding attacks, then use the archer costume to shoot at the knight's weak points. I then ran up to the weak points on the ropes I just shot and peppered the knight with arrows from close range. After three rounds of this, the knight went down, but wasn't quite out yet.
The final portion of the battle saw the triumphant return of Bentley, who confronted Penelope directly, using a new exoskeleton device of his own. The mech battle was simple, but satisfying. We defeated Penelope and followed clues to the next era, Arabia. I explored the overworld a bit, grabbed a few bottles and called it a night.
