Talpa and Pipistrellus, a clever mole and an inquisitive bat, are detectives on the case of a missing painting, and they want you to join them on their hunt for clues. The trail starts at the train station and on to a very grand house, where you and your detective friends will meet some interesting characters. As you investigate, you will make new friends, such as Neomys and Melus, a water shrew and a badger, who may not be all that they appear. Be careful when you get to the dump, as there may be danger waiting!

Along the way, Talpa reveals the contents of his bag of hopes and dreams, a bag full of magical badges which give you powers such as responsibility, initiative and determination, all the things you need to piece together the evidence to identify the painting thief. Good luck!
