GeoGuessr is a popular online geographic game that challenges players to identify locations around the world using visual clues from Street View imagery. A player or team is dropped somewhere in the world and must determine where they are based on the landscape, built environment, cultural cues, vegetation, road infrastructure and other environmental indicators. 

The Department of Geography invites students, faculty and staff to a GeoGuessr tournament on Friday, April 17 at 3:00 p.m. The tournament will take place in the UK Esports Theater, a space designed specifically for competitive and interactive digital gaming events, where gameplay will be projected on large displays so participants and spectators can watch teams debate climates, argue over road markings and place a guess in the wrong hemisphere with great confidence. Come test your geographic instincts, represent your side or simply watch geographers overthink landscapes in public. Light refreshments will be available.
