Our family had fun doing this Wherigo. It was a fun excuse to explore the campus. I had not had a reason to stop when passing by, but on this Sunday afternoon, we decided to earn a Wherigo find and see Wartburg. We did happen to have a security guard say "hi" at about the same point as confronted by a guard in the adventure. Thanks for the hard work creating this Wherigo!

This was our very first Whereigo cartridge...what a positive and rewarding experience!

The campus was busy with a wedding and apparently some type of campus visit / orientation.

Thankfully nobody seemed to notice us having a ball playing the cartridge.

We are glad we tried Whereigos and after this experience are encouraged to try more!

Loved the castle tour and the history lesson, combined with a bit of humor. Very well done.
