You return from the sea as privateers, with a captured Spanish ship to your name. But as the loot is divided, the most precious piece is missing: a Spanish admiral’s golden signet ring. The city’s most powerful shipowner gives you until the end of the day to find it. If you fail, the gallows await tomorrow.
As the clock ticks down, Spanish sails appear on the horizon. Can you clear your names and stop the city from going up in flames?

Shipowner Cornelis Lampsins built this grand mansion in 1641, funded by his privateering fortune. His family kept twelve warships at sea, armed with an official letter of marque from the States-General. Not piracy, but legal plunder with a license.
The stone base of this tower dates back to the 14th century, but the best story takes place at the top. As a ten-year-old rascal, Michiel de Ruyter is said to have climbed the spire—a fitting preview of the ascent he would later make, from rope-maker’s boy to admiral.
Where outdoor terraces now sit, a harbor full of fishing and merchant ships lay for centuries. It wasn’t until 1909 that it was filled in and the square was named after the local poet Jacobus Bellamy. The fountain honors Betje Wolff and Aagje Deken, authors of “Sara Burgerhart” (1782), often called the first Dutch novel.
