Description
                             SKULL ISLAND
--------------
You stand on the beach of skull island ready to make your fortune. Looking
out to sea, you see a shipwreck on the rocks of the point.
Ahead lies jungle extending to the base of cliffs rising to form a snow
covered peak in the centre of the island.
In your hand you hold a map of skull island you discovered in your
grandfather's sea chest. Strange, it has cryptic signs and a treasure chest.
Strange how some people also call this Treasure Island......
