Location Guessing Game: Guess Where in the World You Are
Location guessing games drop you somewhere on Earth and ask one question: where are you? The window below is WorldGuessr, a free Street View guessing game by independent developer Coder Gautam, embedded through GameDistribution. Look around, read the clues, then pin your guess on the map – the closer you are, the more points you get, up to 5,000 per round. Further down you will find two other ways to test your sense of place: finding a hidden city from clues, and naming countries by their flags.

How to Play
Press Play to load WorldGuessr. Choose *Country Guesser to name only the country (the easiest start) or Classic* to pin the exact spot. Drag to look around in Street View, move along the road and zoom in on signs, then open the map, drop your pin and confirm.
The menu also offers *Singleplayer, Find Match for online matches, Create Party / Join Party to play with friends, and a Daily Challenge* with the same three locations for everyone.
Which location guessing game suits you?
- *WorldGuessr* – real Street View imagery and a world map. Best if you enjoy exploring and reading clues.
- *Cityquest* – no Street View: type any city, then use the compass direction, the distance and extra hints (continent, local time, flag, name length, first letter) to find the hidden city in six tries.
- *World Flags Trivia* – a quick quiz: pick the right country for each flag from three choices, 194 questions in total.

Tips
