About Geopoch

Geopoch asks two questions about every clue: where was it, and when? Each daily round has five items drawn from history, science, buildings, art, literature and music. A clue describes the item without naming it, for example a professor presenting a new kind of mathematics to colleagues who barely followed it, and you answer by turning a 3D globe and tapping to drop a pin, then sliding a timeline to the year. The timeline runs from 3000 BC to today and is coarse at the left and fine at the right, with buttons to step by one or ten years.

Two more clues are there if you need them, each costing 15 percent of the points. A question is worth up to 2,000 points, shared between how close your pin and your year are, and the clock matters too: the faster you lock in, the more you keep, though even at the end of the 60 seconds you keep 70 percent.

The daily round changes at midnight Berlin time and is numbered from the game's launch on 30 September 2026, so everyone plays the same five questions and shares one leaderboard. Outside the daily there is free play by topic and level, a Classic set from antiquity to 1999 and a New Era set from 2000 to 2025, and a mode for playing with friends.

Geopoch is free, needs no sign-up and runs in English, German, French and Spanish. It suits players who like history and maps at once, and who enjoy reasoning from a clue to a place and a date.

How to play Geopoch

1. Open Geopoch and press Play today's round.
2. Read the first clue about an event, building or work.
3. Turn the globe and tap where you think it happened to drop your pin.
4. Slide the timeline, or use the step buttons, to the year you think it happened.
5. Reveal a second or third clue if you need it, at 15 percent of the points each, then lock in before the 60 seconds run out.
6. Repeat for all five questions and compare your score on the daily leaderboard.

Tips

• Lock in early when you are fairly sure: time costs points, but never more than 30 percent.
• Use the fine right-hand end of the timeline for modern dates and the step buttons for the last few years.
• Pin the place first, since the location often narrows the likely century.
