TimeGuessr is the game that challenges both your geography and history knowledge in one addictive experience. Using real historical photographs from around the world, your task is simple: guess when and where each photo was taken. Think you know your 1960s from your 1980s? Can you tell Paris from Prague just by a grainy street scene? Whether you're a casual player or a history buff, TimeGuessr will put your deduction skills to the test. Each photo is carefully selected, showcasing moments that span continents and centuries. Place a pin on the map to guess the location, choose the year, and see how close you were. The closer your guess, the more points you earn. New photos are added daily through the popular daily game mode, where players from around the world compete to get the highest score. You can also challenge your friends, compare your progress on the leaderboard, and even create your own shareable rounds. TimeGuessr is more than just a guessing game - it's a journey through time and place, blending curiosity, memory, and discovery in a way that keeps you coming back for more.

Most geography games let you guess from your couch. GeoHunt makes you walk there. GeoHunt is a real-world exploration game where guessing isn't enough — you have to physically get to the spot. You're shown a street-level photo of a mystery location somewhere near you. Your job: figure out where it is and walk to it. The closer you get, the higher you score. It's part treasure hunt, part fitness tracker, part love letter to your own neighborhood. No trivia. No multiple choice. Just you, a photo, and the streets outside your door. HOW IT WORKS Get a street-level clue of a nearby mystery location Read the streets, follow your instincts, and walk there Drop your pin when you think you've arrived — your real GPS position is your guess Score up to 5,000 points per round based on how close you land Play 5 rounds, rack up your score, and climb the leaderboard THREE WAYS TO PLAY Classic — Three lifelines when you're stuck: reveal the distance, the direction, or a 200m search zone. Perfect for getting started. Competitive — Just the photo. No hints, no help. Pure navigational skill for players who want a real challenge. Storm Chaser — Our signature mode. Hidden targets sit inside a storm that closes in around you, Battle-Royale style. Track the hot/cold signal to your target, outrun each collapse, and don't get caught outside the zone. Anticipation, panic, and triumph — on foot. BUILD & SHARE YOUR OWN HUNTS Create custom hunts from places you love.
