Uncovering the Secret Treasure of Chipping Campden

In 1625, Lord Chipping's loyal manservant was accused of theft and sent to the stocks, but the allegations were never proven, and the stolen goods were never found. Recently, while working on a roof, Sam Straw, the local thatcher, stumbled upon a crumpled map and an old notebook with instructions on the whereabouts of the hidden treasure. But Sam believes that the notorious Campden Kleptos have caught wind of his discovery and are hot on his trail. He needs your help to find the treasure before they do. Will you take on the challenge and help Sam return the loot to its rightful owners? Or will the Kleptos beat you to it? The race is on, and the stakes are high. Are you ready for an adventure of a lifetime?
