DailyGeo Capitals, Puzzle #120 on desktop: two guesses, Paris and Nairobi, each scored on five clues in coloured cells

DailyGeo is a free browser game with two daily puzzles: a mystery world capital and a mystery country. Each guess fills a row of clues comparing it with the answer on currency, language, distance, direction and population. It plays in English, French, Spanish and German, and past days stay open to replay.

About DailyGeo

DailyGeo is a geography guessing game by Eliott Gandiolle that runs in any browser and can be installed as an app. It has its own address in English, French, Spanish and German, and the bare address opens in the language of your browser.

Every day there are two puzzles, each numbered, and every player on the same calendar day gets the same answers. In Capitals you hunt for a world capital. In Countries you hunt for a country. You type any capital or country as a first guess, and the game adds it to a table. Each column compares your guess with the answer: the currency, the official language, the distance as the crow flies, an arrow pointing toward the answer and the population, with an arrow saying whether the answer is bigger or smaller. The country table adds the colours of the flag and the number of land borders. Green means exact and red means far, with orange in between.

There is no limit on guesses. Points go up for fewer guesses and a faster time, and a timer runs from your first guess. If you are stuck, a button opens a world map, which the game calls cheating. After a win you can share an emoji grid and read a short fact about the answer.

Where Worldle shows a silhouette and Globle colours a globe, DailyGeo gives you figures to reason with, so a wrong guess still teaches you something. A history button lists every past day back to the first puzzle, and each one can be played again. You can keep a streak or join a private league with friends, and a ladder of travel ranks runs from Tourist to Magellan. Teachers can set up a class league for their pupils.

The site also has GeoMemory, where you type every country or capital from memory, and an Atlas of cards collected as you play.

How to play DailyGeo

  1. Open the game and pick Capitals or Countries. Each mode has its own puzzle for the day.
  2. Type any capital or country into the box and choose it from the list.
  3. Read the new row of clues: currency, language, distance, direction and population, plus flag colours and borders in Countries.
  4. Green is exact and orange is close. Follow the arrow toward the answer and the population arrow up or down.
  5. Keep guessing until you find it, then share your grid or switch to the other mode.

Tips

  • Open with a large, central country. The distance and the direction arrow then point you to a region in one guess.
  • A green currency narrows things fast. The euro and the CFA franc each cover a whole block of countries.
  • Use population to tell a megacity from a small capital before distance pins down the area.
  • The map button costs nothing in guesses, but try a few more rows before you open it.
