Most location games use today's streets. This one sends you to a place as it looked at a specific moment in history, before the motorway, before the tower blocks, sometimes before the city. You pin where on Earth you are standing, then put a year on it.
Explore a 360° scene of a place at one real moment in its past.
Pin it on the world map. The closer, the more points.
Name the year too, then see what happened there.
There are no road markings, licence plates or bollards to lean on. Historical locations are read from what lasts: the shape of the hills, the river, the stone used to build, the style of the roofs, the script on a sign. Those clues are slower but more reliable, and they work for every century.
Famous places come back in different centuries, so a familiar square can look very different from one round to the next.
Pick one country and play five rounds from its history, or play the mixed world game. There is also a daily challenge with the same five scenes for everyone.
