The Goose Herder's Mysterious Disappearance - Can YOU Solve the Case?

Something strange is afoot in the quiet village of Buckland Newton. Local goose herder, Xander Gander, has mysteriously vanished, leaving behind his honking geese and a community that is not too sad to see him go. But upon further investigation, it seems that Xander may have known his fate was upon him all along…

Chief Inspector Steve Tichup has been called in to investigate, but he needs the help of a top detective to solve this puzzling case. Are YOU up for the challenge?

Treasure Hunt Through Buckland Newton

Gather your family and friends for an exciting and immersive self-guided Treasure Hunt through the quaint village of Buckland Newton. As you follow the Trail route, you'll explore the charming country lanes and footpaths that wind through the village, keeping an eye out for sneaky clues hidden on existing buildings, permanent features, and monuments.

The adventure starts at the Gaggle of Geese pub, where Xander's geese can still be heard honking in the distance. But don't let their presence distract you - with Xander's clues and potential suspects in hand, it's up to YOU to solve the mystery and bring justice to Buckland Newton.

The village is counting on YOU… Can you follow the clues, deduce 'whodunnit', and get a feather in your cap?
