GlobeHoppr
Rate itHop from city to city within a set radius to reach the target in the fewest turns.
on globehoppr.com

GlobeHoppr starts you at one city and marks a target city somewhere else on the world map. Each turn you name a city inside your jump circle, such as 750 km, and try to arrive in as few turns as possible. Everyone gets the same Daily Puzzle each day, and a share card compares your score with the shortest route.
About GlobeHoppr
GlobeHoppr is a route-finding game played on a dark world map dotted with cities. Each day's Daily Puzzle shows a card with the start city, the target city and the jump radius: on 20 October 2026 it was Daily #182, from Ushuaia in Argentina to Mbabane in Eswatini with a 750 km radius. You then type city names into a search box, and each one inside the circle around your current city moves you there.
Naming a city outside the circle still costs a turn but leaves you where you were, so careful play pays. Purple Ocean Portals on the map carry you across an ocean for a single turn, which is what makes long journeys between continents possible. Your score is every hop you attempted, misses included, and each route has a calculated shortest route to measure yourself against. A hint button helps when you are stuck, and the result card shows your jumps, missed guesses and hints.
The city set takes in nearly all cities with more than 500,000 people, plus smaller ones that keep every part of the globe reachable. Beside the daily there is a Weekly Challenge, where the week's route is planned under one rule (shared borders, or cities whose names start with a given letter), a Route Reveal, where a hidden journey is uncovered one city at a time, and a Practice mode with fresh routes. Past Weekly Challenges and Route Reveals can be replayed from the Archive.
You can play as a guest; signing in keeps your streak and statistics. It suits players of Travle who would rather route between cities than countries, and anyone who likes working out where places sit on the map.
How to play GlobeHoppr
- Open globehoppr.com and choose Daily Puzzle.
- Read the day's card: your start city, the orange target city and the jump radius, then press Start Daily Puzzle.
- Type a city name into Jump to a City and pick it: if it lies inside the circle around you, you move there.
- Keep hopping toward the target, using a purple Ocean Portal in range to cross an ocean for one turn.
- Reach the target city and compare your turns with the shortest route, then share your result if you like.

Tips
- Plan the whole route before the first hop: isolated cities can leave you with nowhere to go.
- A city outside the circle still costs a turn, so check the distance on the map before you type it.
- Ocean portals count as one turn; look for them early when the target is on another continent.
- Large cities are almost always in the list, so lean on them when you are unsure whether a town is included.
