When you walked past the fountain did you wonder, are these mythical beings a Sea Monster or a Sea Serpent?
It seems the answer is in the eyes of the beholder:
- Sea Monster is a broad term for any large, mythical creature inhabiting the sea, which can take many forms including serpents, dragons, or tentacled beasts.
- Sea Serpent is a large, snake-like creature often depicted in mythology as a sea monster, usually with a long, sinuous body and sometimes multiple heads; essentially, a sea serpent is a type of sea monster with a snake-like appearance.
THIS IS A REVERSE WHERIGO
What is a Reverse Wherigo?
It is a type of Wherigo that tells you the distance, but NOT the bearing/direction to the geocache.
You can start playing this Reverse Wherigo from anywhere, but the final geocache is within 3.2km of the starting co-ordinates listed on this cache page.
For those that would like to attempt to play the Reverse Wherigo, you will need download an app to your phone that can run Wherigo cartridges:
- Android: WhereYouGo – Play store
- iOS: Wherigo - Mac App store
HOW TO PLAY
Log into wherigo.com using the same name and password that you use for geocaching.
Download the Wherigo cartridge (use the PC format) to your phone.
This Wherigo uses The Reverse Cache - beta a cartridge created by Waldmeister and can be found HERE
Play the game via the cartridge in the Wherigo app:
When you start the Wherigo cartridge you will be asked for some code numbers:
088246
332311
484957
Once you get very close to the final location, the "Reverse Cache Box" will give you the final co-ordinates for the cache, you will need to go back in the Wherigo app to find this in the list of options.
It is hoped that you will attempt to play the Wherigo, but because this is old technology and modern phones may not let you download the Wherigo app, an alternative way to play the game is to use a online solver.
The solver means you do not need to download the Reverse Wherigo cartridge to your phone, and will give the exact co-ordinates which you will then need to update on the cache page.
It uses the three code numbers above, and the link to the online solver can be found by clicking below:
