Solution by Garry Francis
----------------------------------------
This is a minimal solution. Your objective is to find ten treasures and return them to the small
hut. As your inventory is limited to four items, you will need to make at least three trips back to
the small hut. Drop all unnecessary items when you're finished with them to maximise the number
of treasures you can carry.
Scores are shown in brackets as +A=B, where A is points earned and B is cumulative points earned.
