'Whereabouts?' is a general knowledge game that also tests users' geography skills.

How to play:

Simply add your name to the text input box and hit 'start game'.

Each round you are given a question and it is up to you find the location of the answer on the map. The close you are to the answer, the higher your score!

Each session has three rounds and you're given a breakdown of your scores at the end of the session. You are free to play as many sessions as you like.
