|---|
Game board inventor Milton Paker recently passed away. After his death, relatives and others close to Parker attends a will reading.
Within the letter Parker setts up a Scavenger Hunt which is the only way one of the attendees can inherit his millions. Everyone is split in five groups and will gain points for each clue they discover. The players are Kenny, Jeff, Lisa, Sam and Marvin and bad ones, Mildred Cruthers and her team of players. One of these clues, is looking for a genunine suit of armor, in which a taxi driver and a servant collected after scaring their competitors away by dressing in a mummy outifit. One team had to collect the world's fattest man and another should steal a toilet from a high class place.
Some may cheat their way to get closer with solving the puzzle as paying thugs to get more of their assigned items. It must not matter how the teams obtain the items just as long they will find them all. Among all the stealing, backstabbing and cheating the question is, who will be the lucky person to hit the jackpot?
