I can't remember my exact score, but two guesses were pretty close and one was totally off. It was the inside of a restaurant >.>. The other one was conifers, a street and a lake. Could have been everywhere between Northern USA and Canada.

17400. I could have broken 20000 if I didn't get a country road with no signs or cars to even help me with the continent. :lol:

New record! :D

I google the clues I find. I consider it merely enhancing the learning.

A lot of places look the same, but there are lots of clues in the pictures. You can use the languages on the signs to narrow things down. If you don't recognize the language, you can type it into a translator that will detect the language. Pay attention to which side of the road cars are driving on. Are the trees indicative of a warmer or colder climate? If there are palm trees, there's a good chance it's not in Scandinavia. If you get really lucky, there may be a flag, or a sign with a town name. I've gotten intersection signs a few times.

That made me laugh.
But it's true. I do it the same way.

I must admitt that I heavily relied on google when I found the clues. One was in a theme park of all places. For another one I clicked and clicked to go forward on a straight road for 8 kilometers. That's how I found out that you have to enter the starting point, and not the place where you are at that moment.

I usually look for a language, and go off of that.

Thanks for reminding me about this! My buddy was just telling me about this a week or two ago and I meant to check it out. I really suck at geography, but this looks really fun and interesting.

Hmmm... Well I could have done a lot worse. xD I'm rather disappointed that I missed the one in the US. I saw mountains for days on end and got tired of looking for clues. Finally was just like smurf it, people go to Colorado to see mountains. Lmao
