Geopolitix is a daily geography game in English, French, Spanish and German. Each day brings five rounds. In the first three you drag five countries into order by a statistic such as rainfall, GDP or spirits drunk. The fourth shows a photo of a landmark and asks which country it stands in, and the fifth asks you to place a named country on a blank world map. Scores go up to 900, and everyone gets the same puzzle.
About Geopolitix
Geopolitix is a free daily geography game from the maker of DailyGeo and Le Bon Rang. It runs in any browser with no account or download, can be installed as an app, and has French, English, Spanish and German versions at their own addresses.
The day opens with three ranking rounds, tagged Geo, Life and Fun. Each shows five countries and one theme drawn from more than twenty real statistics, from population and forest cover to working hours and tea drunk. You drag the countries into order and lock it in. The real values then appear, green for the exact place, orange for one place off and red for further. Each round links to its source, such as the World Bank or Our World in Data, and to the full ranking. An optional bonus asks you to name another country that fits between two places.
Round four is a photo of a building or monument. You get three guesses at its country, and each miss costs 90 points and narrows things down with a continent clue. Round five names a country for you to place with a pin on a blank world map.
Scores go up to 900. A streak counter, a stats panel and a past-days archive sit in the header, and private leagues let a group of friends compare scores.
How to play Geopolitix
- Drag the five countries into the order the theme asks for, then lock in the ranking.
- Check the real values: green is exact, orange one place off and red further.
- After three ranking rounds, name the country shown in the photo, with up to three guesses.
- Place the last country with a pin on the blank map and share your score grid.

Tips
- Anchor the extremes first, then fit the middle countries around them.
- Population drives many totals. For per-head themes, think about wealth and habits instead.
- In the photo round, signs, plants and building styles often give away the region before the continent clue does.
Questions
When does a new puzzle come out?
Every day at midnight in your local time zone.
What happens if I miss the photo round?
You get three guesses. Each miss takes 90 points off and shows a continent clue on a map, and you can also give up.
Can I play earlier days?
Yes. The past-days button in the header opens any earlier puzzle.
