You find yourself trapped in quicksand and sinking fast. What do you do?

• Persuade a passing pirate to swap places by pretending you’re digging for buried treasure and offering to share.
• Aim at a tree on the other side of the sand, press the button on your spring-fired, retractable hook and swing out on the attached cable.
• Grab the beard of one of your pirate crew and haul yourself out.
