Hunt the Lions to Unearth the Unique Treasure!

In the 17th century, Stoke Newington was home to the renowned author, Daniel Defoe, famous for his tales of adventure and religious politics. However, his rival, Oliver Crackattit, took things too far in his jealousy and set out to write a 'desert island' novel to compete with Defoe's. He titled it "The Adventures of Manuel Freitag" and embarked on research for the book on-site. Unfortunately, he was unexpectedly eaten by a hungry lion, and his priceless manuscript was thought to be lost forever… Until now!

It seems that Oliver had sent home letters to his family during his time away, and one of these letters included a map of the island. The document has now reached the Exploration Society, and they need YOU - their top treasure seekers - to crack the clues and track down the lost tale while avoiding hungry lions!
