Tips

You can tamper with the steam valve outside the Steam Room to assassinate Morgan Pendleton without entering the room.
Freeing Emily first allows her to run safely to the entrance while you deal with the Pendleton twins.
Traversing the rooftop pipes and windows provides several safe entry points into the upper levels of the Golden Cat, bypassing the guarded front doors.
