This is an outdoor version of Snakes and Ladders, set in Seaton Park, bigger and better than the game you played as a kid. Even better, once you finish the game, you'll be given the coordinates to a cache!
This version uses a "game board" of approximately 80m
2 consisting of a 5x5 grid, a 4 position spinner and YOU are the game piece.
The rules are the same as the original board game. You spin the spinner and move to the appropriate square.
Some squares contain ladders which move you 'up' the game board, while some others contain snakes that move you 'down' the board. See the image below as a reference for how the game board is set up.
As with the original game you must land on the final square with an exact spin. First one to reach the final square wins!
What? First one to reach the final square wins? Yup, you can play the game with as many people as you would like (each player must have their own Wherigo device), The result of 'spinning the spinner' is random, so each player's path through the game will be different; just like spinning a real spinner. If more than one player is playing, just meet up at the starting square and decide who's going to go first, second, third, etc. Player 1 goes and when their turn is over they should signal to the next player to take their turn and so on; just as if you were sitting around the game board playing at home.
Some important information to keep in mind. You only receive the coordinates for the cache after successfully reaching the final square. The cartridge is set to complete (for later upload on Wherigo.com) only after reaching the final square. So if you're in a multi player game and don't win, you should probably still finish the game to get the cartridge set as complete and to get the cache coordinates for yourself.
