📜 STORYLINE:
You call yourself a treasure hunter—others prefer “thief.”
But when an old letter covered in antique stamps lands in your hands, you know it’s the real deal.
It speaks of the “Oppenheimer Stash,” a legendary stockpile of Gold Rush riches hidden somewhere in Vancouver.
As you begin your search through Gastown, you stumble across something even stranger—a picture frame that lets you peer into the past… and take things from it.
Each glimpse brings you closer to the treasure, but using the frame comes with a cost.
Will you claim the stash?
Or will the past take more from you than you bargained for?
