If you’re looking for some websites to cure boredom, two that will do that are City Guesser and GeoGuesser. They’re geographical guessing games. Let’s take a look at them below.
City Guesser
This website lets you play a game whereby you get to watch a video of a city somewhere in the world and you have to guess where it is by looking at your screen. You can choose the starting country. The videos are good quality so if you know your locations you have a good chance of guessing the correct city. The game will show you how close you were to your guess.

GeoGuesser
If you go to this website and login and play the free daily game, you’ll be dropped in a random part of the world in Google Maps. You then have to work out where you are from moving around and reading the street signs. When you think you know where you are, click on the country and location you think you’re in on the world map. The game will show you how close you were to your guess—the closer you are the more points you score.
