Napier's Cache, by Vivienne Dunstan

Description: Mystery game set in 1590s Scotland, as the player helps mathematician John Napier on a dangerous treasure hunt. 

Author Statement: This is the completed version of my 2018 IntroComp entry. It's based on a true story in my family history, and an aspect of the life of the inventor of logarithms that many people won't know about. I've hugely enjoyed developing it in Inform 7, and look forward to sharing it with folks here.
