About This Cartridge

A short test of your knowledge of some famous works of art, and a cache to find in San Antonio, Texas. You'll search for famous works of art in Mahnke Park, and if you find them all, you'll be given the directions to a cache. Of course, if you aren't in San Antonio, you can still play! Just start it and select Play Anywhere mode! No cache for you, unfortunately, but you're more than welcome to have the virtual experience!

We've tested this as much as possible on both the PPC and Colorado platforms, and the initial bugs are worked out. If you run into trouble, please let us know so we can try to iron out any remaining issues! 

Starting Location

For San Antonio play, park along the road next to the park (but not on New Braunfels). For Play Anywhere play, you'll want a wide open space about 500 feet across.

Thank you for creating this cartridge.
I enjoyed playing it as a play Anywhere game in Cornwall, England.

Hi, this is my first whereigo experience. It was really amazing. I loved it. I used an iphone8 to play. I am not able to upload the file to the system. I took a pick of the cache as proof... how do i send it? I received a code but it dis not work....probably because i had to go back several times and look for the actual cache. The game took about an hour but the cache was trickier. My GPS was not as accurate as it claimed.

Quick, fun WIG. Got the unlock code - which won't work. Pic is attached to the cache find as proof of completion. Thanks for placing and keeping it going!

I've played both the "fun" version and the "real" version tied to the geocache, and they both played flawlessly on a Samsung Galaxy S3 with the WhereYouGo App. Not difficult if you know your art (or have internet access to check), but be prepared for the walk, especially on summer days. Zone navigation works fine, but navigating to precise locations (i.e. the cache location) using the WhereYouGo application always gives me problems.
