In fact 3 of my images were in the States and one in Canada, so I suspect there's a bit of North America bias here? 11.000 points on my first play. Things I used: are road signposts on the right or left, and language. One would have been really easy if I had used google. Instead I guessed Thailand when it was Hong Kong. Also how the hell are you supposed to distinguish between long roads with pines on both sides from the east and west of Canada :O | ||

Without any googling and just spending 5 minutes at work, I managed to get one within 50 miles because it was obviously in Japan. Besides that I thought Ukraine was the midwest of the US, England was in mainland Europe, South Africa was Australia, and the east coast of the US was the west coast of the US. | ||

I don't see how using google and visiting websites that you encounter on the pictures is cheating. It's merely .. a different category, like in speedrunning. It's a very interesting detective work, and over this hour I spent looking for hints I even learned stuff from those locations. As for legit cheating like doing the same places more than once, I did not do that, this is 100% first try. | ||

There should totally be different game modes, like no using internet/no moving/speedguessing (must guess in under 30 secs) XD | ||

You can cheat by looking up the latitude and longitude coordinates and plug them into Google. | ||
