MapUncover: Explore Your World

Your map starts covered in fog, and you uncover it tile by tile.

Walk a street you have never taken before. Cycle across a new part of town. Travel to a different country. Every place you visit becomes part of your personal world map.

MapUncover is backed by research presented at CHI 2023, showing that playful exploration can help people get to know their surroundings better.
