Somewhere is the Street View guessing game, and it leads the list. Everyone looks around the same place on their own phone, pins it on a world map and scores up to 5,000 for a close guess. A game is five places, and the next game starts straight away.
If you came from GeoGuessr: its free tier is one daily challenge, and unlimited play, more modes and multiplayer need a subscription. Somewhere has no game limit and every mode is free for tables of up to twelve. Table Party is not affiliated with GeoGuessr.
Quiz Night is the other kind of geography. It is one of the quiz’s ten categories, and whoever is in last place picks the category for the double round, so a table of up to twelve can steer the night towards it.

How to guess where you are
- Find writing first. The alphabet narrows it to a region, and the language often to a country.
- Read the road: the colour of the lines, the shape of the signs and which side the traffic keeps to.
- Look at what grows and how houses are built. Palms, pines and red-tiled roofs each rule out half the world.
- Unsure? Pin the middle of the likeliest country. Close in the right country beats exact in the wrong one.
