Two Great Geography Games

The super viral game Wordle is a lot of fun, but you can only play once a day. Lucky for us, there are plenty of clones and variations you can try while waiting for the new Wordle. Try some, and pick out your favorites to bookmark. If you happen to be a geography nerd like me, you might enjoy these daily puzzles that challenge your knowledge of the world.    

Listen beautiful relax classics on our Youtube channel.

Worldle gives you the shape of the nation, so if you recognize it, you’re done in one. If you guess wrong, it will tell you how many kilometers away the right country is. Drawbacks: It only gives you six guesses. It has only one puzzle per day. And it includes territories that you may not have heard of.

Globle gives you a world globe to work with. A guess will tell you whether you are anywhere near the answer by color, but not by direction or exact distance. You won’t get any other clues, so it’s a matter of triangulation. If there is a limit on guesses, I haven’t found it yet. Drawbacks: There is only one puzzle a day. I eventually knew where to go, but had to pull up a map in another window to name countries (which might help with Worldle, too).
