The sequence is stark, showing Henry sitting dolefully in a dim room, awaiting the hangman. He’s then led through a jeering crowd to his grim fate. The scene grips the audience as Henry looks on in panic and dread as the noose is slipped over his head. The execution that follows is a heartrending moment.

Getting away with crime isn’t straightforward; the NPCs are astute and responsive to the player’s behavior.
