It has been going on for many centuries. In the dark ages missing treasures and
artifacts were blamed on the devil and acts of witchcraft. People gave accounts of
seeing objects mysteriously levitate then vanish from sight. Elaborate rituals were
performed to protect precious items but often to no avail.
In the late 20th century archeologists discovered in a cave hidden deep in the Canadian Rockies
a strange alien device, a ring of asteroid stone that turned out to be an Inter Dimensional Portal.
Our first explorations off world soon led to contact with other intelligent species. We found out that they were also
suffering from random unexplained thefts for countless centuries. It was from our alien friends
that we finally found out the name of the mysterious forces that could pop in out of thin air, steal somthing
and vanish without leaving a trace.
They are called "The Scavengers" and it turns out that their continuing thefts have cost insurance companies
galaxy wide untold millions in claims over many years. Neither we nor our alien friends know where they come
from and as yet we are helpless to stop them from pillaging of our planet.
A small task force has been created by the Inter Universe Insurance Corporation called the Scavenger Hunters and
since they have opened an office here on Earth, humans have started joining this elite team. The process of tracking
down property taken from Earth to other dimensions by the Scavengers has begun but we need more help.
Are you up to the task ?
Using a combination of alien technology and good old human ingenuity you will embark on missions to alien
worlds that vary from almost Earth like to totally unearthly. Each Hunter's mission objective is two-fold;
first retrieve the stolen goods, and secondly, discover the secret of the power crystals and how they can be
used to destroy these alien worlds.
The Inter Universe Insurance Corporation hopes that a continued assault by the Scavenger Hunter task force
will turn the eye of this alien species away from our planet as a supplier of materials for their pleasures.
As a Scavenger Hunter each mission you elect to go on will be different from your last
one. There may be new worlds to explore, a new list of stolen property that we need you to locate and recover, finally
there will new puzzles every time you portal off world. Each new mission will be full of new challenges.
Finally, our alien friends have told us that the Scavengers are non-violent, very laid back race for such prodigious thieves,
so you will never face any violence or course language during your off world explorations.
