Help Halt Hypnotic Horseshoe Headache!
Evil genius Dr Bea Nasty was having a complete mare… Everyone was talking about the ceremonial horseshoes at Oakham Castle and not paying any attention to her plans for world domination! To exact her revenge, Dr Nasty has built an elaborate device that will put a curse upon these special equine slippers. Anyone admiring them will immediately be hypnotised and start neighing like a horse! Surely Bea's plan is a shoe-in?
However, Prince Lardeedah is galloping his way to the castle to marvel at this display of horsey footwear. Local residents have a nagging worry that the Prince will end up looking a bit foalish and bring eternal shame upon the town. As luck would have it, we have some top Spy HQ agents (YOU!), ready to saddle up and mount a response by jockeying for the code to deactivate this device. Just stop horsing around…
