AussieGuessr (YourLifeChoices)
Rate itPin where and when five historical Australian photos were taken, the same five for everyone each day.
Every day: A Daily Challenge of five historical Australian photos, the same for everyone (the photo order is seeded from the date), with daily, yesterday's and all-time leaderboards and a countdown to the next game. New puzzle: Midnight, local time.
AussieGuessr is a free photo game on YourLifeChoices, the Australian site for older readers. Its Daily Challenge shows five historical photographs from around Australia; for each you drop a pin on the map and set the year, and you score for how close you get on both. A daily leaderboard ranks everyone who played the same five.
About AussieGuessr (YourLifeChoices)
AussieGuessr works like a small, Australian GeoGuessr with a date added. Each round shows one historical photograph, which you can zoom into for clues such as shop signs, cars and clothes, beside a map of Australia and a year slider. Tap the map to place your guess, set the year, and submit; the score adds up over five rounds.
The Daily Challenge picks its photos with a seed made from the date, so everyone gets the same five each day. When you finish you can enter a name for the leaderboard, which has tabs for today, yesterday and all time, and the start screen counts down to the next daily game. A Random Mode plays more rounds whenever you like.
The game is embedded in the YourLifeChoices games section beside its crosswords, sudoku and trivia, and it can also be opened full screen on its own address.
It suits Australians who like local history and readers who enjoy photo games such as WhenTaken.
