Description
You have been summoned to the Eamon Justice Department. The Chief Guard at the palace needs some assistance. Black Bark, the infamous murderer and all-round bad guy is to be tried for his crimes.
You may choose from the following six missions:
1. Arrest Black Bark
2. Bring back a key witness
3. Return a murder weapon
4. Bring the mayor back
5. Bring back some important evidence
6. Bring back Black Bark's loot
This adventure is part of the Eamon universe. Like all Eamon adventures, it is an RPG-style game, mostly using a two-word parser. Because Eamon is a modular system, you may bring a character and equipment from other adventures into this one.

Comparison games
- Jungle Cruise
- Back to the Future
Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- Dice Drafting — Both players use the same dice and decide how to move based on the rolls.
- exit_round_opt_out — Before dice are rolled, a player may choose to drop out of the round to preserve progress.
- fuel_management — Each orange die that comes up reduces fuel by one; if fuel drops to one, progress on uncompleted missions can be lost.
- mission_tokens — Icons on the board are flipped to measure progress toward completing missions; reaching certain icons advances missions.
- roll_to_move — Dice determine movement; players roll three orange dice, with outcomes like 'straight' or 'turn' affecting movement.
- shared_dice_pool — Both players use the same dice and decide how to move based on the rolls.
- win_condition — First player to fulfill five missions and flip all five star ports wins.
- wormholes_and_ports — Wormholes relocate you to the board's other end; landing on star ports flips a matching port token.
