Welcome to the first puzzle series created by CraigsWorld, I am
calling this the "Games Edition Series". I hope you have as much
fun playing these games as I did in creating them. This series has
been in the planning stages for some time, it is great to finally
get it out there for your amusement and mine. Hopefully you will
get all the SMILEY'S...
This
series consists of nine games that you must win in order to get the
coordinates of the hidden cache, watch carefully, along with the
coordinates, you will be given a letter when you solved each puzzle
and you will find a number when you go for the smiley! The letter
and number for each puzzle go together and will be needed to
complete the final puzzle. None of these games are too
difficult, I constructed them to be challenging but not impossible.
Some of you will go through these puzzles with ease and some of you
will struggle a little before getting your smiley. Either way,
everyone should be able to complete this series, eventually.
I have given all puzzles a generic difficulty of 3.5, this is
an average rating of all the puzzles, you may find some puzzles
easier and some more difficult, the rating will be different for
each person. You don't need to do any research on the web, all you
need to do is follow instructions and win some games. Some of these
games are mathematical, some are timed, some are challenging, some
are more time consuming and some you just have to be
lucky.
This
series also has a 10th cache, which is the puzzle cache
final. You must win all nine games in the series, find all
nine caches and retrieve the codes for each. You will need
this when you are trying to solve the final puzzle. Remember, you
will find part of the code when you win a game along with the
coordinates to the cache and the other part of the code when you
find the cache, you will need both parts, they will go together for
each cache. You will end up with nine sets of codes! Make sure you
record the coordinates and code when you complete a puzzle, if you
forget or make a mistake you will have to solve the puzzle over
again!
Here is a

CW-Puzzle Series (Games Edition) - The Final "Final
Puzzle!" (GC31FW2)
Note: All of these puzzles
require JAVA, most computers have java as a standard component
these days, so this shouldn't be a problem. If you rely on your
cell phone to solve and collect these caches quickly, you may be at
a disadvantage as most cell phones do not handle java. If your
does... great, you have a head start. If you do not have java on
your phone, everything but the actual game will show.
Note: The number in the
cache will be written on top of the log and also attached to the
inside bottom of the cache! Please do not try to remove the
number glued inside the cache. If you find that a number has been
removed or damaged, please let me know in your log.
Their will be a prize for
the FTF, 2TF and 3TF on the completed series. See the
"Final Puzzle" (GC31FW2) for details.
Puzzle #3 -
Cache Hunt
Puzzle Instructions
- In this game you must find
traditions caches and run over them with your gps, once found you
will be collecting smileys behind you. Your job is to collect
and tow 25 smileys. I might add that this is my favorite game of
the series. When you have completed the game you will be
given the coordinates to the cache and the first part of the code
for this cache.
Note: If you are using a
MAC laptop, these are the steps you need to do in order to make
this game work. First click on a new game. Leaving the cursor
inside the playing area, press down on the right bottom side of the
touch pad. You should then be able to use the arrow keys to start
the game and maneuver the gps around the screen. Email me, if you
are still having problems after performing these steps. Seem that
on a MAC the game window doesn't become focused until you click
with the right bottom touch screen button. Just make sure that the
cursor is inside of the play area!
Cache Location -
As with all the geocaches in this series, you
will need your own writing device! The cache is located in a
short walk through... this should be a quick find, you may
encounter muggles in the area as it is a popular walkway. Stealth
will be required as there are also business's to one
side.
Game #3 -
