Geocache Description:


Hercule Poirot proudly presents



Having solved many great mysteries in my geocaching career I always wanted to publish my own. It took only some time to get the right idea. Now the waiting has come to an end. Fascinated by the idea I started to design a computer game bringing together the classical point-and-click adventure and geocaching.

If you should be interested in logging this mystery you have to help our virtual geocacher to succeed in his quest... The controls are easy to use. Right-click your mouse to chose the action (look - walk - talk - use) and perform it with the left mouse button. Life is hard and sometimes it is not so obvious what might do the trick but I am confident that you can manage to guide the little fellow. Your reward are some coordinates and the rest should be familiar to you... Please note that there is no need to restart the game unless you need to stop as saving is not implemented ;-)

I am sure you want to jump right away into the adventure but there is one last point I am asking you for. This game has been tested, however, if you should experience a "technical DNF", please report it to me along with as many information on how to reproduce it. If it's working well, I am also looking forward getting feedback from you. The only non-negotiable topic is colours ;-)

Once you succeeded please note down the final game statistics and add them to your log. Btw., I don't mind logging you in German ;-) For finding the final it is not required to remove stones or to break things. Your eyes can find it...
