GeoPuzzle Guidelines and Rules

38 Upvotes

This subreddit is for geography-based puzzles and location-guessing games. Post an image and provide clues to guide users to the correct location.

Post Guidelines

  • The image you post should be discoverable in Google Street View, a public photosphere, or similar.
  • Try to pick a location that is interesting. While random pegman drops are welcome, locations with a history help provide hints!
  • A title with a riddle in it adds an extra layer of puzzle-solving to the game. Try to come up with titles that users can investigate.
  • Respond to comments and help commenters towards finding the location.
  • When the puzzle is completed, change the flair to “solved”. You may wish to require both the location and the solution to the puzzle before changing the flair to ‘solved’.

Commenting Guidelines

  • Feel free to ask questions if you get stuck - but try to avoid randomly guessing countries to prompt a response from the poster. Explain the reasoning behind your guess and the poster can tell you if you’re on the right track!
  • If you guess correctly, explain how you solved the puzzle.
  • If you’d like, use a spoiler tag on your guess so that other commenters can continue to work on it after you’ve solved it.
  • Don’t use URL shorteners, as they can get caught by spam filters.
  • If you’re enjoying solving the puzzles, try to create one of your own!

Tags and Themes

  • You can add tags to your post if you want to. Some of the tags you can add are:
  • [OC]: Original Content - this is a photo that you took yourself.
  • [Historical]: An old photo, showing a view that may not still be the exact same. Historical photos should have enough identifiers to be recognizably the same location.

Subreddit Rules

  • Be respectful of other users. We’re here to have fun.

I made a daily geography puzzle where you name the countries on the shortest route between two others

1 Upvotes

Hello!

I wanted to talk about the geography puzzle game that I made. You get a start country and a destination — say, Canada → Guatemala — and have to name every country on the shortest path between them, in any order. You get a map, but it's deliberately stripped of political borders and labels, to make the game a bit more challenging.

Shares are spoiler-free (flags + a row of squares, Wordle-style), there's a daily puzzle that's the same for everyone, an unlimited mode with difficulty/region filters, and a custom mode if you want to challenge a specific pair of countries with a friend.

It's free to play, and no account needed. Check it out! https://bordercross.io

As a clue, this place is by it's very nature 'secret' - but if you know the country and the area, you may well have heard of it!
