Geocache Description:

This is a play-anywhere wherigo with an associated geocache.

You never have to go to the posted coordinates. Instead, follow the description below. That will give you a way to get the coordinate of the geocache associated with this Wherigo.


This Wherigo is a so-called play-anywhere Wherigo. This means you can play it anywhere in the world and if you finish it correctly, you will get the coordinates of this cache.
This is not a traditional Wherigo, and some experience with Wherigo's might be useful.

This Wherigo cartridge is a real life 'Memory' game.




Step 1: Download install the Wherigo cartridge.
The cartridge can be downloaded here
The Wherigo has been tested on the following devices.
  • Garmin Colorado
  • Garmin Oregon
  • iPhone, iPad: Wherigo app by Pi-Soft Consulting
  • Android phones: WhereYouGo app by Asamm Soft
  • GPS-enabled Pocket PCs: Wherigo Player
In my viewpoint, Android works best.

Step 2: Find an open place to play the Wherigo
You need an open field. So any park, football field or empty parking lot is ideal, as long as you can reach all spots. A 150x150 feet square should be enough, 200 feet square is better.


Step 3: Start the Wherigo
This Wherigo is a real life memory game. Once you have found an open area, the game will ask you to do define the play board. You have to play the 4x4 memory game to unlock the cache coordinates. The places will be called A1 for lower left to D4 for upper right. What you want to do a picture a field as shown in the picture below in your mind.


Step 4: Play the Wherigo
Play the memory game and unlock the cards. Walk around and if you reach the spot you want to unlock. The game will tell you if you found a card and will ask you if you want to unlock it and 'yes' and it will tell you the card at this location. If they match, great, they will be unlocked. If they don't match you have to try again until the entire board is revealed.


Note, you cannot save during a game, but you can save in between finished games. The board can be redefined during a game if you are not pleased with the current setup.


Step 5: Win the game
Finish the entire memory board and you get the coordinates. Note the code that you need is for the 4x4 memory board, the other sizes are just for fun.
Go to the 'achievements' menu to see all the 'unlock codes' you have unlocked and to see the cards you have unlocked so far.




Step 6: Find the cache
The cache is in a 2 mile radius of the posted coordinates.


Good luck.
