This short adventure is designed as an introduction to a new magazine, Buccaneers and Bokor, which Adamant Entertainment has launched. The story tells of a tale of revenge, in which the characters become involved when they are hired by one Captain Bobo to help him retrieve his buried treasure... only Captain Bobo (due to a spot of bother with a bokor) is a monkey. A bad-tempered, foul-mouthed monkey at that - and one with an evil plan of his own.

It all seems straightforward, if the characters will transport Captain Bobo and his remaining crew to a certain island, he'll give them 30% of his buried treasure. But of course there's a catch. Or several... to start with, the treasure doesn't belong to Bobo, it belongs to the bokor that turned him into a monkey. The island is the bokor's home (fortunately, he's out!) and it is crawling with zombis and a few other monsters. Oh, and Bobo has no intention of sharing anything with the characters, he'll steal their ship and either kill them or abandon them on the island for the bokor to deal with on his return.

A neatly-written adventure with enough twists to keep a simple tale interesting; although let down by one or two grammatical errors and a layout problem that means not all the pages are completely legible. Worth a look...
