Stop the Evil Butcher's Puffinator Machine in Skipton
In the charming town of Skipton, a sinister plot is brewing. The notorious butcher, Scott Cheggs, has built a machine that could ruin his competitors' beloved pork pies. Nicknamed The Puffinator, this device uses invisible rays to transform traditional pie crust into puff pastry, much to the dismay of pie lovers everywhere. But fear not-local butchers have called upon YOU, their top secret agent, to stop Scott and his dastardly plan.
