Geocache Description:

This is Victoria's Largest Sudoku Wherigo, you will have to visit enough zones to solve the sudoku to reveal the coordinates. This Wherigo cache was inspired by Day's "Premier Challenge Wherigo" and "Memory Wherigo". Many thanks to Day for his help with some coding and structure input along the way. Also thanks to my beta tester, you know who you are, for ironing out some real-play bugs.


Instructions :

Download the cartridge HERE

The 81 locations on a Map HERE

Sudoku Grid without Map HERE

As there are 81 zones, this cartridge has been programmed differently than you may have experienced. There are no zones to navigate to and there will be no zones shown in the cartridge until puzzle is solved and GZ zone is revealed. You will have to use the map above to see where all the zones are. You do not need to have the cartridge running continually, once you are in a zone, RESUME the cartridge to see the number for that zone.

Visit as many zones as you need to solve the Sudoku. Each player will receive their own individual Sudoku, so collaborating with others is futile, you will have to visit the Zones yourself. Do not restart the cartridge as it will generate a new puzzle for you, making your previous zone numbers useless.

There are only 3 buttons to use in the cartridge, they are in your INVENTORY, called SUDOKU COMMANDS

----- SHOW NUMBER : This shows the current zone, the number for this zone, distances to surrounding zones, and then numbers you have found. Use this button if you travel into a new zone with the cartridge running, as it does not auto-detect when you are in a zone.

----- ENTER SOLUTION : Once you have solved your Sudoku, use this button. You will have to enter the entire puzzle, line by line, and you will not be told if you are right or wrong until all 9 lines have been entered.

----- SAVE GAME : I advise you save the game after you have received the number.

REMEMBER to always RESUME the game when going back into the Wherigo. Upon resume, the cartridge will execute the SHOW NUMBER command automatically.

Good Luck

*Update - Whilst this works fine on Iphone Wherigo, apparently Android aren't very good at Wherigo code execution - I will see if I can do something about it.*
