Hampstead is a quest, but not for gold. The aim of it is to reach the pinnacle of social status, and acquiring wealth is only one part of the problem. If you wish to go up in the world, you also have to gain the admiration and respect of your fellow men, and there's more to that than a fat bank balance. In Hampstead, it helps to know something about art - or rather, to give the impression you do. You must wear the right clothes, be seen in the right places, live in the right house with the right partner and use the correct mode of transport. You must meet the right soft of people and say the right things to them. Although the old school tie never does any harm, your most important tool is simply the ruthless and skilful use of your natural cunning. At the start of the game you are a nobody whose aim is to become a somebody. So lie, cheat, steal and defraud. You know it makes sense.
