Welcome to Geo Mania! It's a fun geography game where your goal is to recognize a location from the satellite view of it.
The game contains a number of different locations: many famous landmarks, cities, natural sites (rivers, lakes, etc), and UNESCO World Heritage sites.
You can choose the location type directly, or browse by country.

--------
Level

In each level you get to figure out a single location. You can scroll around and zoom in and out while trying to identify it.
There is also an "Explore" map available for you where you can, for example, try to find a similar-looking coastline containing the name of the object.
To win the level, you need to enter the name of the location in the "Answer" page (bottom right corner). It is recommended to go through the levels from Landmarks (Easy) to UNESCO World Heritage (Extra Hard).

--------
Hints

If you're stuck, there are a number of hints which you can use to help you identify the location. Click on the question mark icon on the top right corner of the level to use them.
Location hint: reveals an approximate location of the landmark/city/site. Repeated usages improve the precision.
Reveal a letter: reveal a letter of the correct answer.
Remove wrong letters: keep only the letters which are in the answer.
Solve the level: simply show the answer.

--------
Coins

Using hints costs in-game coins. You get them by completing the levels and voting (if you think the level is fun or not). If you still need more coins, please visit the purchase page.

### 4/5 — Would be better if the correct language is used for Unesco sites

*2024-08-11*

Default is the incorrect American English (Unesco use English).  Some sites are also badly translated to American English so making the clue harder than necessary.  
Overall very good.

### 5/5 — Très culture g

### 5/5 — WITHDRAWAL

I finished all the levels, and now feel lost.  Is a “refresh” expected?  Prospective users should be warned about this app’s addictive properties.

### 5/5 — Great game you should try it
