This in and of itself is not a new thing: spending a little time behind bars every now and again is one of the hazards of the job. But up until now it's been for little 50-crown and 100-crown jobs out in the countryside, and you've ended up in decrepit little gaols that managed to hold you for, what, a minute? Possibly two?

Lock & Key is unusual in creating a graphical interface to help you keep track of the traps, minions, and other pitfalls that you can introduce against the incoming hordes of do-gooders.
