The Lost Formula of Cromford - Can YOU Solve the Clues?

Ernie Fortune, a wealthy industrialist, was known for his revolutionary process of creating a versatile cloth that adapts to the weather. But when he passed away, his formula for the cloth was lost, hidden somewhere in the Cromford area. Now, the Intrepid Explorers Society has received a mysterious map that may lead to the formula, but their rivals at the Adventurers Agency have also gotten their hands on it. It's up to you, the world's best treasure hunters, to explore Cromford, solve the clues, and find the formula before your competitors do. But be careful of any booby traps along the way!
