Adventure! Excitement! These are the things about which you’ll be lying through your teeth, in this non-daring romp that never sets foot outside London.
You’re all would-be adventurers who are terrified to go on any real journey, so you sneak around London collecting artifacts and stories, and then return to the Adventurers’ Club and lie about where you’ve been. Africa! China! Mount Everest! The South Pole!
The villain of the game, Captain Park, thought of this scheme first, and he’s not going to make it easy for you. Captain Park wanders the streets of London, and if he spots you, the jig is up.
Captain Park’s Imaginary Polar Expedition is essentially the rough draft of Stuff and Nonsense, a newer slightly simpler version of the same game. You should definitely check out Stuff and Nonsense, but you should also take a look at the original Captain Park to see what changed and take a few guesses about why.
