## What is NORTH?

A real map, spun to a random angle. Turn it until north is back at the top.

Five of them a day, the same five for everyone, from a whole country
down to a 70 km square.

No compass, no north arrow, and the labels stay upright so nothing
looks wrong. Just the map, and what you know about where places are.

THE DAILY

- Up to 1000 points a round, scored on how many degrees you are off
- Ten degrees out is a good round. Under three is a sharp one
- New maps every day at midnight UTC

AROUND THE WORLD

459 maps across 133 countries and every continent. No map comes back
inside forty days.

SCOREBOARD

Pick a name and see where your five land against everyone playing
today, worldwide or in your own country. No sign-in, no email, no
account.

Map data from OpenStreetMap contributors.


## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.0.3 — 2026-09-07

FIXED
• Skipping the intro no longer leaves it on screen over your first map.
• Reduce motion no longer removes the home backdrop.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-09-05

SCORING
• Rebalanced. 40° off used to score 33 points from 1000, so most
  rounds felt like nothing. Near misses now score like near misses.
• Totals no longer swing by 1000 points over a single degree.
• Existing leaderboard scores recalculated on the new curve, so the
  board still compares like with like.

MAPS
• 132 → 459 maps. 49 → 133 countries.
• Every tier now spans every continent. The tightest round used to be
  21 maps, all of them European.
• No map repeats inside 40 days, up from 3 weeks.

FIXED
• First run now explains the game before your first daily.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-09-04

Two city rounds have been retired. Nairobi and Johannesburg
were the tightest maps in the game with nothing to read: we felt it was a bit hard!

Kenya returns at a width where it works. The Kenyan Rift puts
six lakes in a line, the escarpment, and Mount Kenya on the
map at once.

The map engine and the fonts now ship inside the app instead
of loading from the web, so the first round starts faster.

### 1.0 — 2026-09-04
