How to play WhereTaken
- Study the photo for clues such as language on signs, architecture, vegetation and road markings.
- Open the map and place your pin where you think the photo was taken.
- Press Guess to see how far off you were; closer pins score more, up to 200 points a round.
- Play through the rounds to reach a total out of 1,000, then share your result.
Tips
- Text is the strongest clue: even the alphabet narrows the country a lot.
- Notice which side of the road cars drive on and the style of road signs.
- If you know only the country, pin near its middle or its biggest city to limit the distance.
- Past games are in the archive if you want more practice.
