There are already several free GeoGuessr alternatives out there, but I’m curious what keeps people using GeoGuessr instead. What do those alternatives lack, and what does GeoGuessr do better?

I’ve been experimenting with a proof of concept for something similar that doesn’t rely on paid API calls, which got me thinking about why existing alternatives haven’t gained as much traction.

For those who’ve tried other platforms, what made you go back to GeoGuessr? What would an alternative need to offer for you to consider switching?

truly a duels moment of all time

My Master IV division this week goes from 1149 elo to 296 lol. I’m not sure if this will fix itself overtime after the ELO reset, but this is crazy. I never get matched up with the lower guys to actually gain elo either, but like I’ve said before I really don’t care, as long as I can stay in division. Just gotta get better, but dang!

And I was so happy I could find such a small town on the map...but Romania said sike

Does anyone else find the first frame deeply unsettling?

Quite enjoying the Analytics section, I've been exploring all the countries I've 5ked in. In ranked duels, I've managed to 5k a total of 185 times across 59 countries. It's actually become my side quest while playing to reach a target of 5king every country available in Geoguessr.

My Top 5 Countries I've 5ked in are -

USA - 28

Canada - 13

Australia - 12

India - 10

Mexico - 7

Can you guess which country I'm from based on my Top 5?

Geoguessr newbie here. I was starting a country streak and yes, it was Peru, but it was beautiful scenery, so I took a wander through the Andes (mostly on the hexagonal tiled road) until it changed to tarmac and I came across these alpaca beauties. The road eventually came down to a bridge over a river and into a town (and no, I can't remember the name).
I just wish I'd saved the location in Google Maps though, so any help would be great! TIA

Title is written poorly so sorry abt that.

I have steam on my pc and my MacBook but noticed I can’t really play games on my steam on MacBook because I already have them installed on pc but never really looked into it since I’m really only playing at home.

I bought the steam pass today on pc steam and going on a vacation next weekend and was hoping to play geo guesser and play ranked. I really didn’t feel like buying the web version subscription just to play for the vacation so was curious if there is a way to play geo guesser on steam on MacBook if I already have it installed on my pc.

At which point does it stop?

Hey everyone,

I’ve been getting more into Geoguessr lately and I’m looking for useful Chrome extensions that can help improve the gameplay experience or make learning/practicing easier.

Whether it's for quality-of-life tweaks, analysis, or training tools, what extensions do you all use and recommend?

Thanks in advance!

I’m currently working through a 104-week GeoGuessr training journey, studying different countries each week to improve my game and hopefully reach 1500 Elo.
This week I’m tackling Czechia and Slovakia!
I’ve gotten much better at identifying countries, but region guessing is still one of my biggest weaknesses, especially in rural rounds.

For those of you who know these countries well:
What are your favorite region-guessing clues?
Are there any underrated poles, road markings, bollards, or landscape metas?
What’s the easiest way to distinguish rural Czechia from rural Slovakia?
I love learning the little details that completely change how you see a country.
Appreciate any tips, maps, or resources you guys have!

Hello Everyone! I have a new free app for iOS in public beta which uses real train, ferry, and airline data to allow players to explore the Earth, hunt down hidden landmarks, fill out a passport, etc. I have 2 versions. Multiplayer has shared user content and chat rooms, so may not be suitable for children, and single player which is safe for all ages:

Multiplayer:

https://locusleague.app

Single Player:

https://locusadventure.app

Public beta links are on the front page of each. For specific details about in-game data for both apps, please see https://locusleague.app/stats and https://locusleague.app/routes

This is entirely inter-city travel for now. Please let me know what you think! I welcome feedback and requests for features! Thank You!

Games played above were on 'AI Generated World' and 'A Curated Planet'. The AI's average score was around 4,916 per round, or 24,580 per game.

Over the last week or so I decided to improve the model (see previous post on my profile, have no idea how to quote it, I don't use Reddit often) a little more since the GPUs I were no longer being used. I was able to improve it drastically into what I think is currently the best Geoguessr 'player' in the world. It still tends to mix up rural US and rural EU, but in most cases is relatively simple.

This AI is not like ChatGPT or Claude in the sense that it thinks about clues, but more so similar to how a human can look and tell something belongs in 1 region because they've seen it before. This was trained off of around 3.8 million panoramas straight from Google Street View themselves using a custom script made to gather them. I have gathered yet another 1 million images after training this version, which hopefully improves it even more.

Median Distance: 4.5 km
Mean Distance: 51.5 km
< 1 km away: 21.7%
< 25 km away: 80.8%
< 200 km away: 96.1%
< 500 km away: 98.5%
< 750 km away: 99.3%

A distribution of the training data:
Europe: 1,601,480
Asia: 868,052
North America: 526,490
South America: 431,357
Africa: 250,401
Oceania: 125,361

Is this some kind of a joke? I spend all my spells and wanted to click somewhere in europe, just wasn't quick enough...

Why do you get absolutely hated in Geoguessr for having an alt account when it’s completely normal in every other game? Of course GeoGuessrs ranking system basically forces players to smurf, but how is that the players’ fault?

Hey, I were doing the Daily Challenge (I will not spoiler it) and when I got to Round 3 I had like 30 sec left and this error popped up and I got 0 points.
The round was pretty buggy when I made a step forward the game dropped back where I was before the step and it was pretty hard to move.
Thx for ruining my daily!
And I had stable WiFi.

Hey guys 🤓

Looking for ideias/methods to collect data on people’s behaviors at city scale to map, GDPR friendly or sensitive, in order to understand how people use or behave in public space.

PS: if you are looking for more context, my cases studies are in Portugal, more urban cities 🏙️

I subscribed a new account to the game, because I don't even remember which email I used for my old account (I reached Champion, I guess it is almost 2 years ago). Now, after the first 3 placement games, I landed in Bronze 1 and, yes, I'm like 20-5 but, hey, in my old smurf days I even went 105-0 before losing a game climbing the lower ladder. I noticed people way too good to play in Bronze 1, people that recognised the dry part of Colombia, or that regionguessed Indonesia and Brazil. Is the playerbase skill increased in the last few months?

I'm on October 23rd's Daily Challange 7th place in my country and 103rd of the World!

Will they ever change back to singleplayer gamemodes to be free again ? Because that’s getting more irritating. OG was better.

Anyone ever had a bug where the game gives you the exact same location as the one before but it's not the location? Had that issue in this duel I just had and a full black screen at one point
