Storyline

You are a Dutch sailor/trader and found yourself in Brussels after following a map you won from a homeless man. The map promises a huge pile of gold in a chest! You didn’t believe it in the first place but the map took you to other small prizes before without effort and now you think it can be real.

This last challenge for the treasure will be harder than before, though.
