How to play

Pick a game and a region, Bangladesh or the whole world. In Pin the Place, tap the map to drop a pin and lock in your guess: a pin inside the right area, or right on the landmark, scores 1000 points, and the further away it lands, the fewer points you get. In Satellite Detective, name the place you see from above; zooming out helps, but lowers the points.

Bangladesh
8 divisions, 64 districts, 544 upazilas and famous landmarks.
World
167 countries and famous places, from the Pyramids to Machu Picchu.
Pin the Place
Drop a pin on the unlabeled satellite map. Five places per game.
Satellite Detective
Four choices per view. 1000, 600 or 300 points depending on zoom.
