How to play

How does it work?

The forecast shows the weather at the mystery place. You have 6 guesses to find it. Choose a name from the search results, then tap Guess. Each wrong guess shows the distance and direction to the answer.

This arrow means the answer is northeast of your guess.

What does the picture do?

In Normal mode, each wrong guess reveals more of the picture and its landmarks. Hard mode hides the picture until the game ends. Revealing it early permanently switches this puzzle to Normal mode without using a guess.

When do I get a clue?

Clues unlock one at a time, starting after your second guess. They are free and never use up a guess.

What is a good strategy?

Use the weather for your first guess. Then compare the distance and direction from each guess, and use the clues as they unlock.

Which places are included?
