You are lost in a boggy swamp. What do you do?
Keep on struggling through the swamp, moving from one clump of grass to another and fighting off stray alligators with your cutlass.
Catch hold of a boa constrictor dangling from an overhanging branch and use it to swing across to solid ground at the edge of the swamp.
You call for volunteers from your party of pirates to lie down on top of the bog so you can walk across without getting your boots muddy.
