ArchiGuesser

About ArchiGuesser

ArchiGuesser is a daily guessing game for architecture fans. Each day one project is picked from a curated list, from classics to contemporary buildings, and you see it in pictures.

You search for your answer by building name, architect or place and submit it. You have six guesses in all; after three, the game gives you a hint, and the construction years can help you narrow down the era. When the day is done the game shares a result line with the puzzle number and links to more reading about the building.

If you want more, the game offers extra challenges on themes such as an architect (Zaha Hadid, Le Corbusier, Renzo Piano), a country or a style like brutalism or modernism. Players can also suggest projects to add, with credit if they wish. An optional account keeps your progress across devices.

It suits architecture students and anyone who notices buildings on their travels, and players of BuildingGuessr who want a named project rather than a location.

How to play ArchiGuesser

1. Open archiguesser.com to see today's project.
2. Study the pictures for style, materials and setting.
3. Search by building name, architect or place and submit a guess.
4. After three tries, read the hint.
5. Name the project within six guesses and share your result.

Tips

• Identify the style first: brutalist concrete, glass curtain walls and classical columns each point to a different era.
• Signature forms often give away the architect even when the building is unfamiliar.
• Use the extra challenges to learn one architect's work at a time.
