Geocache Description:

This wherigo will be playable on Android phones, however the "walk hint" system does not work on Androids (it for some reason does not move the zones correctly, I do not have an Android phone and have not been able to debug it). It is still playable, but just a little more difficult without walk hints.



You have been sent to the hangman gallows and your only chance to escape is to test your knowledge of word lexicons in order to be granted a pardon.

This wherigo is the classic "Hangman" game. It is a play-anywhere version where you will be given a random word drawn from a large pool of 300 possibilities. The geocache is not at the posted coordinates. You will need to succesfully solve 5 words in order to be given your freedom (and to be able to find the associated geocache).

Should you need help ... just walk! Type "hint" into the input box to go into walkhint mode. For every 100 feet you walk you will be given a hint in the form of a letter that is not in the word. Do you chance solving the word without help, or perhaps a little exercise will help clear your mind and get you on the right path.
