The rules

  1. Six places

    Each day brings six places of the world, one at a time: two famous, two known and two hard, in six countries.

  2. Drop the pin

    Tap the map where you think the place is, then confirm. You can zoom in to aim. With a keyboard, the arrows move the cross, Enter drops the pin and confirms, and + and − zoom.

  3. The closer, the more points

    Each place gives up to 100 points: about half at 1,000 km and a quarter at 2,000 km. The six places make 600 points in all.

  4. See where it was

    After each pin, the map shows where the place really is and how far away you were.

Every day

Six new places come out every day at 06:00 UTC, the same for everyone who plays that day. They are at least 1,500 km apart, and their names come in English and Spanish.
