Plenty of things to love about this cartridge.
1. You can play this anywhere you have plenty of room
2. Level of challenge increases with each stage
3. Level of your skill increases with each stage
4. You get a great workout playing all stages
5. You get a chance for 3 geocaches with one cartridge

I played this in a field next to the house we are staying at. Once when I was running randomly around the field I saw a neighbor at the edge of the field watching me with a confused look on her face. I waved and continued running. Later I noticed she was gone and no police showed up.

Whack a Mole was first. It was pretty easy to walk from one mole to the next with a little jog now and then. First round was just getting the hang of it. Second round score was good enough to complete the task.

Whack a Rat was the next step up. Rats were a little quicker going up and down so I wound up jogging to get to them in time. Two rounds and I had completed that level.

Whack a Superhero Rat almost required superhero ability to complete. Starting with Moles then Rats prepared you for this super level. My first round was miserable. The Superhero Rats were just too fast for the old strategy of picking one and running after it. I switched over to using the map display and jogging to them. This gave me a descent score but not nearly enough to complete the task. The map was working well and after a couple of rounds I was getting quite good at it. Round 4 I was running as fast as I could hitting clusters on the map. That round's score was more than double the combined top scores of the Mole and Rat tasks.

Great fun going after the geocaches in the frozen snow and icy trails. Loved this game, the workout and later adventure that went with it. Well done! Thank you for this Wherigo.
