Map Instinct: Geo Duel

Trust your map instinct.

Two cities appear on the map. Which one is farther north? Which one is farther east? Which of them is farther from Cairo, and how many kilometres apart are they really? You have seconds to decide, and the faster you answer, the more you score.

Map Instinct turns world geography into quick decisions. There is nothing to memorise: you learn the shape of the world by playing with it.

FOUR WAYS TO PLAY • Classic — every correct answer buys you more time. Chase your best score. • Streak — chain correct answers. One miss and the streak is gone. • Survival — one life, five seconds per question. • Practice — no timer, no score. Just you and the map.

REAL-TIME DUELS Get matched with a player anywhere in the world and answer the same questions at the same moment. The higher score wins, your rating moves, and the duel board remembers. Invite a friend by username for a friendly duel, or ask for a rematch the second it ends.

A NEW CHALLENGE EVERY DAY Everyone gets the same set of questions. One attempt, one leaderboard, a new set tomorrow.

CLIMB THE BOARDS Weekly and all-time leaderboards for every mode, a board for the daily challenge, and a separate rating board for duels.

LEVEL UP Earn XP for correct answers, finished rounds, daily challenges and duels. Every level carries a league metal, and medals track what you are actually good at: the far north, the distances you judge best, a continent you know by heart.

BUILT ON REAL GEOGRAPHY 580 cities and more than 650,000 questions generated from real coordinates and real distances. The map is drawn from Natural Earth data, and place labels stay hidden while you play, so the map never gives the answer away.

PLAYS IN YOUR LANGUAGE 14 languages: English, Turkish, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Arabic, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, Simplified and Traditional Chinese.
