Viewdle

The idea came from a TV screensaver and a couple guessing where each picture was taken. Viewdle turns that into a daily game with one beautiful view.

How to play Viewdle

  1. Study the view

    Landscape, buildings and light all carry clues.

  2. Pick a country

    Choose from the list.

  3. Follow the compass

    See how far off you are and which way to go.

  4. Ask for help

    Extra clues appear if you are struggling.

Light as a clue

Low golden light often means a high latitude, where the sun rarely climbs high. Hard light from straight overhead points toward the tropics. Combine that with the plants and the kind of buildings in view before your first guess.

Three clues after each guess

Viewdle tips

  • Plants and terrain tell you the climate.

  • Follow the arrow instead of guessing neighbours one by one.
