Play it if you…
Good fit- Players who enjoy geocaching themes and want puzzle-based exploration

Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking combat-focused action may find the treasure-hunting and puzzle structure too passive
- Players who want tightly directed levels may bounce off the open-world searching and travel
- Players looking for deep character-building systems may find the progression limited to skills, gear, and GPS upgrades
Our take on Tales From The Cache
The bounce point is the GPS-led search itself: players must spend time locating caches across open terrain before the puzzle or discovery payoff arrives. Those expecting constant action may lose interest during the walking, climbing, and travel between objectives.
What is Tales From The Cache?
Tales From The Cache is a geocaching adventure set in an open world with secret locations, puzzles, abandoned places, and hidden treasures.
Players use a GPS tracking unit to locate caches and can travel across rough terrain with the Enduro “Lynx” motorcycle. Character progression includes skills, equipment upgrades, and improvements for different GPS units. Movement includes climbing and scaling obstacles. The environment changes through dynamic weather and changing daytime conditions, with a living world surrounding the exploration.
