What GuessGlobe is

GuessGlobe is a free browser geography quiz built around a spinning 3D globe covering 195 countries and their capitals. A standard round has ten questions: identify a country, then name its capital. Each question allows 30 seconds, with faster correct answers earning more points. Consecutive correct answers create streaks that multiply bonus points, with escalating rewards from streaks of three or more. Modes include Classic, regional play, daily mystery country, country marathon, capitals, flag, and typing. The daily puzzle gives everyone the same mystery country with distance and direction clues and refreshes at 00:00 UTC. The game uses active recall by highlighting countries and asking for their capitals. Borders use Natural Earth data, while capital answers are checked against government gazettes, UN data, and the CIA World Factbook. GuessGlobe runs in a modern browser without installation or sign-up. The site says it does not directly collect personally identifiable information, though third-party services may collect technical data. Listed services include Google AdSense, Google Fonts, jsDelivr, and Cloudflare CDN.
