GeoGuessr drops you in Street View and asks where you are. SoundGuessr plays a short clip from a real place and asks the same question. No photos. Just audio recorded on location.

What is SoundGuessr?

You hear a clip, drop a pin on the map, and see how far off you were. Points depend on distance and how tough the location is to guess. Clips are field recordings, not stock libraries or synthetic audio.

Tokyo at rush hour sounds nothing like a Mediterranean cove. Language in the background, traffic rhythm, birds, weather: those are the clues.

How is it different from GeoGuessr?

GeoGuessr players read signage, architecture, and road markings. SoundGuessr players listen for:

  • spoken language and accents
  • traffic, markets, and other city noise
  • wind, water, and wildlife
  • anything else that was actually there when the clip was recorded

Same core loop: guess the place, see the answer on a map. Different input.
