Geocache Description:


This is a Wherigo Cache. In order to find this cache, you must play the cartridge on a smart phone or Pocket PC with a compatible Wherigo Player.

*** UPDATE 06/04/2012 ***

This cartridge has been updated to play more efficiently on the Garmin version of the player!

The design of this game cartridge will allow the player to play at any location. So you can play this Wherigo any time, anywhere. However you must go to the final location in Genesee County, Michigan when you decide to search for the final.

You may enjoy this one so much that you decide to keep it and play it as a stand-alone game on your phone!

You can download the cartridge from the Wherigo site by clicking the button below.

The posted coordinates will take you to the I-69/I-475 expressway interchange. This location is only a place to "park the icon". You do not need to go there, nor should you. Do not attempt to search for the cache at the posted coordinates as it is illegal and dangerous! You will be given the actual cache coordinates upon completion of the game.

The theme of this game is bowling. When you start the game you will be asked to choose your opponent from a list of seven bowling champions. Once you have made your choice, the game begins. The format is simple. You roll the first frame. Then the champion rolls the first frame. This is continued until the last roll of the tenth frame.

Scoring is real, although you will not know the score until the game is completed. If you desire to know the score at the end of each frame, you will need to keep score as you bowl. Upon completion of the game, you will check to see if you have beaten the champion. If your score is higher than the champion's score, you are the winner. If you are beaten, you can start again and hope for a better outcome. All rolls are random, so your odds of winning are 50/50.

Once you have beaten the champion, a new location will open. You will receive your trophy at this location. This is a very special trophy. It shows the world that you are a champion bowler, and it contains the coordinates for the final cache location!

The cache is a small camouflaged lock & lock container. Be aware of the possibility of muggles while searching for the cache. When you are finished, please hide the container as you found it. In order to claim this cache as found, you must physically find the cache and sign the log sheet. You must also email to me through my geocaching profile the completion code given to you at the end of this Wherigo. Although it is not required, please upload your completed saved game file (gws) to the Bowling for Cache Wherigo page so I can keep track of completions. You can rate my Wherigo game on that page as well.
