+youkfish Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 I've been using the Adventure app for a while and have completed several Adventures near my home base. I'm headed to Europe in a month and wondering if there is any way to search for adventures before I get there. All I can find are Adventures that are listed to be XXXX mi away, so looking for something that might show them on a map or a list of different cities that may have them. Going to be on a river cruise: Budapest, Bratslavia, Vienna, Melk, Spritz, Passau, Prague, London. Thanks! Quote Link to comment
+arisoft Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 You need a fake GPS app to trick the Adventure App to think that you are overseas. Quote Link to comment

I can see most Adventures up to 7000+ miles away from home, but it would be nice to have them in a list, searchable or on a web based map. It does appear that there are two in Vienna!

Is there a map for US lab caches? Quote Link to comment
+ampdavid Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Please try using the new map feature we just released, instead of a location spoofing app. Quote Link to comment

Because there are adventures spread on hundreds of km/miles. For example by using the map for Halifax, Nova Scotia I got no results when there are 3 availables lab cache from 2 adventures.

+K13 Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 It seems that the map shows the Adventures in the same manner as a Multi Cache. The starting location is the only one shown on the map. This may seem better than nothing, but it is really no more useful than no map at all. Quote Link to comment

Now, I have to figure out how/if I can do them "offline" while overseas. Quote Link to comment

You need a network connection to send your answer while you're close enough from where the question is asked. If you go away, you can't answer anymore. Quote Link to comment

You'll need a connection to play. We are discussing how to support offline scenarios still. Quote Link to comment

+youkfish Posted October 30, 2019 Author Share Posted October 30, 2019 I was able to complete two Adventures, one in Vienna and one in Passau, Germany. I used a Motorola Droid and paid for roaming data package on Verizon. The Vienna one had English questions, so easy to answer. Passau was in German and I had to translate the questions, which took more effort, but worth it and completed the whole Adventure. Quote Link to comment
