The Hunt for the Jewel of Prosperity - Can YOU Find Sir Bevois's Treasure?
For centuries, the tales of the legendary knight, Sir Bevois, have captivated the minds of storytellers across Europe. But amongst the many stories of his heroic deeds, one legend has remained a mystery-did Sir Bevois truly found the city of Southampton during his travels?
Thanks to historian Indy Past, this mystery may finally be solved. After uncovering a set of clues and a map pointing to an ancient relic, the Jewel of Prosperity, buried beneath Southampton, Indy has tasked the Exploration Society with retrieving the treasure. But only the best treasure seekers will be able to crack the clues and find the precious artefact.
