How to Build a Cartridge

Although it's a little more complicated than 3 steps, here's a general overview of how to build your own Wherigo cartridges.

Step 1

Step 1: Map Out Zones

Zones are GPS-defined locations in the real world - the basic building blocks of Wherigo. Set the stage by mapping out the zones.

Step 2

Step 2: Create a Story

Define your context – the situation, objectives, and events that you want players to experience. You can develop characters, items, tasks and rules to support the experience.

Step 3

Step 3: Share It Online

Once your cartridge is complete, upload it to Wherigo.com for others to play.
