Five steps, one match
- Pick a topicFootball, Formula 1, Landmarks. Each has its own 5 questions every day, the same for everyone.
- Find it on the globeDrag to rotate, scroll or pinch to zoom. Every answer is a real place with a real latitude and longitude.
- Place my pinTap the map to drop a pin. Tap somewhere else, or drag the pin, to move it. Nothing is submitted until I say so.
- Lock it inThe closer my pin is to the answer, the more of the 100 points I keep. Then I get the right place, how far off I was, and the story behind it.
- Finish all five500 points is a perfect score. Share my squares without giving anything away, and come back tomorrow to keep my streak alive.
