• Whereabouts World and Higher or Lower: World

  

  My two daily games go global: find the mystery country, capital, city, town, village or region anywhere on Earth, and pick which of two countries is higher on 67 measures from beer to bananas.

• Whereabouts: guess the mystery UK town

  

  A daily map game: guess the mystery UK town in six goes. Every guess tells you how far off you are and which way to go, every miss unlocks a clue, and at the end you find out what the name means.

• Higher or Lower: a daily game of UK places by the numbers

  

  Two places, one number: which is higher? A daily game built on 66 measures for every UK council, from pay, house prices and sunshine to the Leave vote, sheep farms and Druids, with a map so you know where they are.

• I really love GeoGuessr: a globetrotting relief from lockdown

  

  GeoGuessr is a geographic discovery game designed by Anton Wallén. Released on the 9th May 2013, I doubt Anton had in mind the powerful escapism the game offers those stuck in seemingly never ending lockdowns. The game has provided me a gamified gateway to the wider world that I have been very grateful for.
