About DistanceGuessr
DistanceGuessr is a puzzle game by SOLUCIDIA that turns geography into a quick, competitive test. Launched on January 12, 2026, it plays on any web browser and offers single-player or multiplayer modes. The premise is simple: guess distances and elevation differences between real-world locations. Players tackle challenges like estimating the gap between Tokyo and Paris or the height difference between Everest and a local mountain. Themes range from city pairings to airport routes, with daily and leaderboards to keep things fresh. It’s fast, bite-sized fun for geography fans and trivia lovers.
Gameplay
Each round drops you into a map where you pick two points and enter a distance or elevation guess. The game reveals how close you were in real-time, using color-coded feedback, green for perfect, red for off. Multiplayer duels let you race against friends or strangers to see who’s more precise. Longer sessions mix in themed rounds like “Capitals Only” or “Short Hops,” with escalating difficulty. Controls are minimal: click, drag for elevation bars, and type numbers. The core loop is addictive, each round clocks in under 60 seconds, but leaderboards and daily streaks encourage repeated play.
What Players Think
DistanceGuessr holds a 4.2/5 on community ratings, with 72% of players completing its core challenges. Average playtime is 25 minutes per session, but 40% return daily. The game’s “competitive fun” mood dominates, with 68% of reviews calling it “addictive.” Early leaderboards show 83% of top players hitting under 10% error margins in elevation rounds. One player wrote, “Feels like trivia night but with maps.” Critics praise its “deceptively simple design,” though 15% of reviews mention repetitive themes after 50 hours. Completion rates drop by 20% in expert modes, suggesting a steep skill curve.
PlayPile's Take
DistanceGuessr is a solid pick for trivia buffs and geography geeks, offering 20-30 hours of play for $9.99 (web-only). Its achievements, like “Top 100 Global Rank”, add replay value, but casual players might tire of the mechanics fast. While not impressive, the game’s blend of speed and precision makes it a standout for quick, social sessions. Skip if you hate number-crunching, but give it a try if you enjoy map-based trivia.
