The story
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Many years ago a brave hero saved the land from unavoidable destruction by
killing the evil wizard with the help of a gigantic mushroom.
Nowadays the mushroom is kept in a museum in the city of Phungoria.
The citizens take turns guarding and preserving the mushroom from year to
year. Every summer a big mushroom-festival is being held, when the people
celebrate the ancient victory. During this cermony a new citizen is elected
to take the huge responsibility of keeping the mushroom safe and in good
shape until next year's festival.
For nearly a year now, Gilbert's grandfather has been taking care of the
mushroom. But one week prior to the festival, someone steals the mushroom.
Everyone blames the grandfather for not being able to do his duty properly.
The king throws him in jail and prepares to have him executed during the
festival.
The only way to save his grandfather is for Gilbert to find the stolen
mushroom before the end of the week...
