GeoGuessr

[Spang]

This game drops you off in some location in the world via Google Maps. You then have to guess where you're at. The closer you are to the actual location, the more points you get. There are five rounds to accumulate the most points.

After my first game, I got 8,409 points.

After my second game, 12,688 points.

Beat my scores.

I've been playing this a lot lately and I love it, I'm supprisingly good for someone geographically challenged. I can't remember what my highest score is, something over 15000 I think, I had a few really good rounds where I landed in the UK and knew exactly where I was. Europe is so much easier than the rest of the world because the countries are small with different languages.

I am very bad at this game.

Not too difficult once you figure out you can wander around till you find a sign.

That's cheating!

I got 7222 points. I would have gotten more, but I mistook Ukraine for somewhere in Central America.

Round 2 was 7654. I didn't recognize Botswana and guessed Texas.

I just mistook South Africa for Australia. Interestingly they are at the same latitude and are both large grassy continents so it wasnt an entirely stupid guess.

 

[Freesia]

Just mistook Canada for Sweden.

Mistook Russia for the Ukraine.

I dont think I am terrible at this.

How can it be cheating when the tools to use are part of the game? You're just mad because you didn't think of it first nahnahnah.

I have generated 6192 points but I am getting sore eyes, so I will stop. I really want to go travelling again now.

Guessed Australia partly as it was drive on the left country.

Got 9800 for last game.

Just saw somewhere and guessed South Australia immediately. Turned out to be South Eastern Australia. Oh well.

I would recognise Australian bush and terrain anywhere.

Must. Close. Addictive. Game.

When you're almost 19,000 km away from the correct location, you get 19 points.

Well, it was after 4 actually, the last one didn't seem to count in, so the total was 3,914.

I'm averaging 11,084 points so far. This is fun and addicting.

I don't see how that is possible, unless you are able to differentiate between near-identical types of environments.

I mean, how much different is an American desert from an Australian desert?

All of my scores are documented (all but one are linked in my first post). I do explore the areas to get a better idea of where I'm at. The most I've been wrong so far was guessing New Zealand when I was in the UK.
