I'm really not very good at this game. I can't tell the difference between Canada and Australia.

No googling, no moving. Did spin around on the spot though.

Surely googling is cheating.

i've now got over 11,500 a couple of times without googling but it did require a fair bit of deduction and spinning on the spot.
Also who knew there were bits of Poland that look like the south of france!

11997 no googling here.

New Zealand, somewhere in the Netherlands, couple in the US and one in Canada ( trees as far as you could see and a dead straight dirt road.... )

I may have been playing this a little too much...

Now getting the same pictures repeated 🙁 must be a limited data set of pictures - I was hoping that it would just go on for ever....

Shame about the limited pictures.

It would be great if it just gave 100% random shots. Initial shots wouldn't look as good but loads more depth to the play.

I've been getting the country bang on almost all the time - I even got Korea - but I seem unable to distinguish between Australia and South Africa often.

If the picture is devoid of signage I'm getting a few muddled up between scandinavia and canada. The middle of nowhere, Australia and the middle of nowhere America look very similar too.

I did have a right comic one where it plonked me next to a sign that said welcome to 'someplaceorother' Alaska's first city.

2nd in South America (I chose Chile instead of Brazil)
3rd in Europe (Greece)
4th USA (Alaska)

Bah!

Curse beginners' luck.

What I was convinced was the Stirling Ranges in Western Australia turns out to be somewhere on the US/Mexico border.
