MeloGuessr

MeloGuessr crosses a music blind test with a map game. A song plays, and instead of naming it you work out where the artist comes from and drop a marker on a world map. The closer your pin lands to the artist's origin, and the faster you place it, the more points you get. The game credits its maker as Adrien Larouzee, plays its clips through Apple Music previews and is kept ad-free by donations on Ko-fi.

The Daily Challenge is the part that makes it a daily game: a numbered set of five songs, the same for every player, counted from 12 January 2025. A countdown on the button shows how long until the next one, and it turns over at midnight UTC. Outside the daily, Free Play lets you practise as long as you like, and World Explorer draws on harder, less familiar music from around the globe.

The clips are short previews, so knowing the song helps, but a good ear for language, instruments and genre takes you a long way even when you have never heard it: a reggaeton beat, a Portuguese lyric or a kora line all narrow the map. It suits music fans who like GeoGuessr-style pinning and want a round that takes a few minutes.

After each guess the game draws a line from your pin to the artist's home town, names the place and the distance, and shows the track's cover, title and artist, so every round also teaches you a song. The day's five songs always come from five different countries.
