A mystery is waiting to be solved in

Guildford

The Guildford Guns ice hockey team has been on a losing streak, and it's no coincidence. They have been the victims of a devious sabotage campaign that has affected their performance. From loosened screws on skates to infected hockey sticks and even itching powder in their kit, this team has been targeted by a sneaky culprit.

But who is behind this sabotage, and why are they targeting the Guildford Guns? Our detective agency needs your help to crack the case and uncover the truth. We suspect that the culprit is a fan of a rival team, but we need YOU, our best private eyes, to find out who. And not only that, we also need you to discover which team they support.
