Saddle up, buckaroo! A notorious bandit is on the loose, and it's YOUR job to use the advanced capabilities of Wherigo to track him down!
A Wherigo adventure starting at the Buzzards Bay Depot at 70 Main Street in Buzzards Bay by which the Cape Cod Central Railroad continues to run. You play an unassuming deputy sent to investigate a dangerous train heist. You can start the cartridge anywhere, but you will need to enter the "Sheriff's Office" zone located near the National Marine Life Center for the cartridge to progress.
You can view the Wherigo FAQ for additional information or you can jump right into Wherigo.com to learn more about Wherigo GPS-enabled adventures, Play Anywhere cartridges, and the growing number of Wherigo geocaches.
Do I need special equipment?
Yes, you will need three items:
1. A Wherigo enabled device
2. The Cape Cod Train Heist Wherigo Cartridge Version 1.3
3. Pen / notepad
Wherigo enabled devices:
Garmin Colorado
Garmin Nuvi 500
Garmin Oregon
iPhone with the Wherigo app
Android with the WhereYouGo app
Pocket PC with the Wherigo Player
Playing the Game
Once you have the Player ready to go, you will need to log in at Wherigo.com using your Geocaching.com account login to download the Cape Cod Train Heist cartridge. You will run the cartridge from the device's Wherigo Player, not from the Geocaching application.
Garmin users should turn off tracking and restart their GPS receivers before beginning.
iPhone users should occasionally wave their iPhone in a horizontal "figure 8" to ensure compass calibration.
Is logging my find any different for this cache?
Logging your Wherigo find on Geocaching.com is no different than logging any other puzzle cache.
Logging your Wherigo find on Wherigo.com offers some additional options:
1. Write Log
2. Unlock the cartridge by Uploading your Save Game
3. Unlock the cartridge by Entering the Unlock Code
After completing the Wherigo cache and logging on Geocaching.com, feel free to post a log on Wherigo.com. Mentioning your Wherigo device / player in the log will help ensure compatibility.
Unlocking the cartridge on Wherigo.com is not required, but it would be greatly appreciated. After you've completed the cartridge you should see a "CapeCodTrainHeist.gws" file on your device. You can upload this file to Wherigo.com and it will "Unlock" it, giving you full credit for completing the cartridge. It will also help track the number of completions for this cartridge.
Again, not required, but I would really appreciate it if you did.
Feedback is a good thing!
Because Wherigo is in its growing stages, your feedback is invaluable. Any insight about your experience (good or bad) will help me fine tune the Cape Cod Train Heist cartridge while helping determine whether or not to continue creating additional Wherigo caches.
Finally, a very special thanks to J2B2 for the exceptional work that helped make the Cape Cod Train Heist possible!
