importance

except for some articles talking about this by its launch, I dont see anything special that justify a wiki page. Uziel302 (talk) 06:12, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

I missed your comment earlier. These are not just "some articles". If you do a Google News search, you'll see that this was covered in multiple countries by major news organizations. Coverage continued for several months. IronGargoyle (talk) 00:35, 4 October 2013 (UTC)

GeoSettr -- create custom challanges

A later feature of GeoGuessr was the ability to share challenges, allowing someone else to try the same set of 5 points that you tried. A third-party site worked out the format of the challenge URLs, and created http://www.geosettr.com/ which lets you specify 5 points and turn them into a challenge URL. I thought this worth mentioning on the talk page, at a minimum, and maybe even in the article. 63.251.123.2 (talk) 00:19, 22 November 2013 (UTC)

Possible changes and-or aditions

The new version of Geoguessr give points between 0 and 5000. The old version is still available as "retro version". There are also special versions of the game for specific countries/regions/events.

Beside locations photographed by Google Street View cameras there are other posible locations: those taken from geolocated spherical pictures incorporated to google maps from google map views (https://www.google.com/maps/views/home) or stored in google plus profiles. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.57.29.21 (talk) 10:49, 1 July 2014 (UTC)

Google reviews

You should look at the Google reviews for this game. Yeesh. Poydoo (talk) 18:30, 14 January 2020 (UTC)

"The locations are limited to roads and other paths"

Some years ago, it placed me under water off Hawaii, so I don't think that this is strictly true.

GeoGuessr Inspired Games

A section for GeoGuessr-inspired games such as GTA GeoGuesser should be added.
