How well do you know our planet? You'll see a Google StreetView image and must tap the map where the picture was taken. If you're closer than your opponent, you win the round!
You can compete with friends all over the world and see your rank in a worldwide leaderboard.
A game is comprised of 5 rounds, whoever taps the most out of these 5 places closest to its actual position, wins the game.
In the Google Streetview view, you can 'drive around' to search for clues as to where the photos were taken.
Maybe you'll find lots of cars with brands, that are mostly sold in Italy?
Maybe you can see a street sign with Russian letters?
Is there a little French café at the street corner?
Or can you see a kangaroo hopping next to you?
You have 45 seconds to look around and search for clues. ;-)
Our game is based on the ELO rating system.
That means, if you win against a player, who is a lot better than you, you get a higher score than if you win against a player, who constantly loses.
The places, that are shown are also based on your skill. When two good players compete, the game will show harder Streetview images. Two not as good players, will get places, that are easier to guess, like the Eiffel Tower, the Leaning Tower of Pisa or the Statue of Liberty.
Happy guessing!

About us
The idea of creating an own app appeared to me on a train ride with such miserable internet connection that the documentation of xCode unavoidably had to serve as reading material. And with that the first idea for an app was born: Mia with a fake button, a dice game with a cheating mode.
In the meantime, there is whole team sitting behind the apps, developing more than 100 apps for iPhone and iPad and uploading them into the iTunes Store. Even in the Android world you can find some gimmickry.
Whether there’s a virtual pet living in your mobile phone, football gamblers competing against each other and the results, paper plane instructions being used in a restaurant, serving the perfect Sunday breakfast egg or filling your brain with some not so unnecessary knowledge, the apps are fun and enrich the drab monotony of everyday life. Regular Top Ten rankings in the App Store, right up to #1, show that the ideas have the finger on the right pulse.
The creative head behind the Lochmann Apps is Benjamin Lochmann, who is known to be a passionate computer programmer and at the same time the CEO of the Benjamin Lochmann New Media GmbH.
