A trail of clues awaits in

Dundee

Young Roger 'Dodgy' Dodger was on a mission to find his father's long-lost boyhood comic collection. But while rummaging through the attic, he stumbled upon something even more exciting - an old, tatty treasure map with scribbled notes attached. Legend has it that this map holds the key to a hidden treasure trove of Russian and Spanish gold doubloons, brought to Dundee in secret on the RRS Discovery. The Intrepid Explorers Society has enlisted YOU, the most daring and expert adventurers, to solve the clues and uncover this elusive treasure. Are you ready for the challenge?

The Great Dundee Treasure Hunt

Ace adventurers, it's time to put your skills to the test on this thrilling self-guided treasure hunt through the medieval city of Dundee. As you explore within the city walls, you'll trek through sites like Albert Square and City Square, while discovering fascinating facts about the city's past. But beware, there are rival explorers lurking around every corner, ready to snatch the treasure away.

Can you unearth the long-lost treasure trove before it's too late?

Roger 'Dodgy' Dodger was amazed to find what looked like an old tatty treasure map tucked away up behind the rafters of his attic. A scribbled note suggested it might hold the key to a vast hoard of Russian and Spanish gold doubloons brought to Dundee in secret on the RRS Discovery! We need treasure seekers (YOU!) to track down this amazing hidden haul.
