About Europe
Europe packs dozens of countries, languages, and building styles into a small continent. Borders are close together, so a few kilometres can change the language on the signs.
It is the perfect continent to train your eye for details: road markings, number plates, and the shape of the roofs.

How It Works
Look closely
Every round shows a real photograph from somewhere on the planet. Signs, plants, architecture, cars, and even the light can give the place away.
Drop your pin
Place your guess on the world map. Zoom in as far as you like, the closer your pin, the better.
Score and discover
See where the photo was really taken, how far off you were, and what makes the place special. Five photos make a game.

Can I play Europe for free?

How are the points calculated?
Your points depend on the distance between your pin and the place the photo was taken. A pin right on the spot earns the most, and the further away you are, the fewer points you get.
Where do the photos come from?
The photographs come from openly licensed and publicly available media. Each image is credited with its origin when we have that information.
