Cache is not at listed coordinates!
This is a play anywhere cartridge and, as such, can be played... well, anywhere; even at home from your favorite chair. The location of the actual geocache is the Alamogordo, NM area.
I happened upon a geo art series in Kingston, Tn that used this concept for placing the caches. The cache owner was happy to allow me to use the concept here in NM.
As the cartridges start, you will be given the specific rules but your task is simple; all you need to do is "Name That Tune". You will be presented with 5 song clips and you must successfully identify 3 of the 5 songs to be rewarded with the final coordinates of the geocache, a hint for the container's placement and a gold ego-star... if you are into such.
There is a good sampling of well-known songs from the 50s through 2016. I was born in 1950 and the song selections for these puzzles came from my personal favorites, so they are heavily populated with songs from the 70s and 80s. Most are country, though a few from other genres have found themselves in the mix. As such, your age and preferred music genres could make these puzzles more or less difficult than the posted rating.
Use of a wherigo compatible device is not required. The game may also be played using the emulator tool in the Wherigo Builder program. 64 bit machines may require two patches for the emulator to work properly:
Patch 1
Patch 2
Because these are audio wherigos, Garmin devices will not work correctly. The cartridges have been tested on iOS and Android platforms and the most popular apps associated with each. With either platform, when you download the cartridge, select "Pocket PC Device" as the cartridge type.

I openly admit that the coordinates you will be given on completion of the cartridges are fairly loose. But the final locations are all pretty obvious. The posted difficulty levels are based on the puzzles more so than the hides but, in certain instances, you may have to explore GZ a bit for the less obvious. You will be looking for a micro container.
Enjoy, happy listening and happy hunting!
