John Wilkes Booth escape route

About This Cartridge

Take a trip to 1865 to the time of President Abraham Lincoln. Travel the same route his assassin John Wilkes Booth traveled the moments and days after Lincoln's death. You will be required to go from Washington DC, to Maryland, to Southern Virginia, and back to Southern Maryland. You will learn who John Wilkes Booth is. Where he traveled. Why he traveled there. And who he met along the way.

Some things to think about along your quest:

There were no telephones. No cars. Booth traveled by horseback. No GPS. He needed to know where he was going.

I choose a rainy day to complete this one. After finding the location of the first stage I had a good idea where I was heading. The cabin stage was tricky but after a couple of false starts I managed to find it. The final was a quick find after I realized that the picture in the cartridge didn't match the actual container.
