Bandston

You're shown a name. Is it a real city, an indie or rock band, or somehow both? That's the whole game, and it's a lot harder than it sounds.

Bandston pulls from over 25,000 real cities worldwide and thousands of band names, some obvious, some sneaky. A handful of names are genuinely both, like Boston, Chicago, and Phoenix, and those get their own gold reveal when you find them.

Play a full 25-question round any time, or take on the Daily Challenge: the same 25 questions for everyone that day, with a live leaderboard so you can see how your score stacks up. Build a daily streak by coming back day after day.

Track your accuracy separately for cities, bands, and both, and unlock badges as you go: streaks, perfect rounds, milestones for rounds played, and more. Most badges keep leveling up the longer you play, so there's always another one to chase.

Think you know someone who'd get destroyed by this game? Challenge a Friend sends them a direct link to your exact round, Daily Challenge or regular, so you can settle it head to head. Every round also ends with a shareable scorecard for bragging rights either way.

Want to keep your progress if you switch phones? Cloud Backup saves your stats, scores, and badges to a recovery code you can restore from any device. No account, no email, no sign-up.

Free to play, with a small banner ad to keep it that way.
