Week 5
The Ghost Flusterer was rescued from Orb HQ, congratulations Pointians! It joined both the Chilly Plant and Unihornus Skull as items recovered from the thieves.
The final mystery that remains, however, is why? What motivated the thefts in the first place?
All will be revealed to County Pass members shortly.
Week 4
Keen to bring justice and find the final missing archaeology discovery, Two Point Officials prepared to break into the Orb Foundations' HQs.
As you'd expect, they have pretty hefty security measures in place, and they were using the same strange language as seen in their secret note.
Pointians worked together to crack swiftly through these high-security doors and alarms, showing proper team work whilst under pressure. Perhaps a reflection of HQ management's ego, all the passwords were Orb-related...
Week 3
Wiggy needed your help again...
CCTV footage of the crime scene was discovered, which would help identify who the Thieves Guild really were. The issue is, they rewound the tape a little too hastily and it broke the footage...
One hundred pieces of the CCTV footage went to Pointians across Two Point channels, who worked diligently to piece things together.
As the puzzle became whole again, a snippet of the CCTV was enhanced, revealing a secret handshake between two thieves. The community expertly figured out that this was "perfect shape and perfect solution"
Week 2
Congratulations, Pointians!
Working alongside County Officials, Wiggy is delighted to deliver the perfectly spiffing piece of news (as he would say) - that you’ve cracked it!
After checking your decoding calculations, the note reveals a mysterious message:
GOONS, MEET BACK AT THE LAGOON
Quick to get to the bottom of things and keen to clear up his reputation, Wiggy sent out a search party by chopper over the weekend, to survey nearby lagoons. With some pointers from experts in Discord, his team swept over the lagoon in Herbaceous Gardens, keen to find the missing artefact before it was too late.
Greetings from the Herbaceous Lagoon
Hot on the tails of the meddling thieves, they sadly fled as soon as they heard the chopper approaching. But, good news everyone! The rare discovery was recovered, and the team are on their way home with a crate in tow. Expect a closer look at it tomorrow.
This isn’t the end of this tale, as the meddling guild of thieves is still at large after serial heists across the County. There’s some good news at least, County Officials have recovered CCTV footage from the scene of one of the thefts. They were overzealous in rewinding the tape though, and the whole thing is a little broken up…
If you fancy some adventure, comment below or reply on your favourite social channel, saying you'll join the investigation; alternatively, join our Discord and react to Wiggy's latest post. You’ll receive a fragment of the CCTV footage tomorrow morning, at least, after Wiggy’s had his morning coffee that is…
Week 1
The County needs your help!
Our friend Wiggy Silverbottom has found himself in a rather sticky situation, this time not involving millions of hidden priceless collectable chocolate eggs.
As you know, our beloved intrepid explorer is always on the lookout for his next adventure. So a few months ago, he assembled a team of newly graduated (so-called) experts in his field to embark on a top-secret and extremely important mission. There they made a remarkable discovery…
Unfortunately, there was a slight hiccup before this discovery reached its destination… the whole thing went missing! This caused quite a stir, as you’d imagine.
Although Wiggy did find that old Unihornus Skull in the back of his sixth garage, he is absolutely certain that this recent find was en route to secure County offices. Distressed and unsure of what to do, Wiggy is turning to you for help again, this time in tracking down this precious find.
If Wiggy is unable to locate the artefact, he fears his global reputation may forever be in tatters. This could see the end of his career as a renowned explorer, meaning the brightest archaeology graduates in the County may never have the chance to work on exciting projects.
To make matters worse, there’s somewhat of a crisis at hand, as it seems this predicament isn’t unique to Wiggy. A pattern is emerging, as artefacts have gone walkabouts all over the County. It’s up to you, Pointans, to solve the mystery! Can you lend a hand to uncover the truth behind these serial heists?
The only lead so far is this weird note discovered where the rare discovery was last seen…
