The mission: Your story in Norwich
You are an investigative explorer who has just uncovered the journal of Father Edward Ram, a Victorian vicar who dedicated his life to tracking these beastly anomalies. His final notes warn of a looming historical eclipse: if the city’s animal guardians are forgotten, the vibrant pulse of Norwich will fade into grey obscurity forever.
Armed with only your wits and the vicar’s cryptic riddles, you must race from the imposing walls of the Norman Castle down to the legendary Tombland. Crack the ciphers, track the creatures, and unlock the city's wild heart before time runs out!
