These are called 'Mapsets,' and each is made to look and feel so realistic that you will believe you are handling documents hundreds of years old.

DESCRIPTION:
(Note - This is game 2 in the series but can be enjoyed & solved independently of the other games, whether you've played them or not. To view the entire series, please visit www.etsy.com/shop/LegendAGameofMaps)
This particular Mapset (game) brings you to multiple continents and befuddles you with original puzzles from a variety of old-world cultures. It picks up where the last game's surprise ending left off. Building on your previous discoveries, you learn that you are not the only one chasing this treasure through history. As the challenges and the stakes rise, so does the feeling that whoever created these puzzles did not want their treasure found...and anyone who attempted to locate it would die trying.
Come visit unique destinations in the Mediterranean! Join the Age of Discovery! Find what others could not! Meet the Maya culture, learn to translate their ancient symbols, and get ready for this adventure to unfurl!
