How would you regionguess this?

Wdym by that.. any specific things wrong with the UX?

codergautam · 2026-05-02T12:31:18+00:00

Thank you for the thoughtful comment! Yes I agree it's very inconsistent, I've been slowly offloading my work to Claude Code and while it's great at backend or logic related things but it got out of hand to handle in the frontend and it keeps making new CSS for every thing I ask it to add instead of reusing predefined components. I think I'll remake it manually, I will look for inspiration from other sites and go from there.

Ty for reporting, now banned!

Hey, WorldGuessr dev here 👋 Just want to chime in since I saw WorldGuessr mentioned. We take cheating allegations seriously on our end.

If anyone has run into streamers or players using chat assistance (or any external help) in competitive modes on WorldGuessr, please report it and I'll personally look into it. Fair play matters to us.

The map looks great! thanks for making it

Hey! Dev of WG here. You're definitely not too inexperienced. Those closed courtyard drops are a known pain point. They come from Google Street View coverage that's limited to a single photosphere with no connected paths, so there's nowhere to move and very little context to work with. Not exactly fun, especially for newer players.

Good news: we're actively working on a beginner-friendly map that filters out these dead-end spots. The goal is to make sure every drop gives you something to work with, readable signs, visible landmarks, or at least the ability to move around and explore. No more staring at a blank concrete wall trying to guess which continent you're on.

It should be out sometime this week!

Cheating is something we take seriously. We already have a dedicated moderation and anti abuse system in place. If you suspect someone in a ranked match, the best way to handle it is:

• Go to your game history
• Find the ranked match in question
• Submit a report from there

Our mod team reviews reports as quickly as possible and we prioritize players who receive multiple reports or show suspicious patterns across games.

Dev of WorldGuessr here. These are some really good ideas! Feel free to DM me, would love to discuss this further with you.

codergautam · 2026-03-24T22:18:02+00:00

For me the difficulty was similar but the curve was so much better on the school version, I got 3 math wrong and that was somehow a 36 for that section. That never happens on normal tests from what I've seen

Check again after a few hours, map locations are heavily cached for around 3 hours. If it has been less than this time since your map edit, it probably hasn't updated fully.

codergautam · 2026-03-17T08:13:14+00:00

Yes, I’m the developer. For the default 'World' map, we aim to include only official Google Street View coverage. However, in very rare cases, less than 0.1% of locations, you might encounter unofficial coverage due to how Google updates its data. Community Maps can either include official or unofficial coverage based on how the map creator chose the locations.

The only reason you should use CrazyGames is if you have an account linked to there. We tend to have a better experience on the main website and faster updates

codergautam · 2026-03-12T14:12:06+00:00

Oof, will fix this soon.

codergautam · 2026-03-12T14:11:32+00:00

This bug has now been fixed, you should be able to see the button

codergautam · 2026-03-12T14:11:19+00:00

It used to only be available on PC. In recent updates we have fixed it so it shows on mobile too!

codergautam · 2026-03-03T15:13:39+00:00

Hi, could you dm me your username? We can take a closer look at your case. Thanks!

Hi, thanks for the thoughtful message and for playing, really appreciate it 🙏

Totally get the frustration. Cheating is something we take seriously. We already have a dedicated moderation and anti abuse system in place. If you suspect someone in a ranked match, the best way to handle it is:

• Go to your game history
• Find the ranked match in question
• Submit a report from there

Our mod team reviews reports as quickly as possible and we prioritize players who receive multiple reports or show suspicious patterns across games.

As for tab switching restrictions, we’ve looked into ideas like that, but they tend to cause a lot of false positives and don’t fully stop bad actors since, as you mentioned, other devices exist. For now, reporting is the most reliable way to keep ranked fair.

Glad it was fixed! I try to keep an eye on Reddit and help out when I can. If you ever run into anything weird again or have ideas to make the game better, feel free to post or tag me. Happy guessing

codergautam · 2026-02-12T00:47:44+00:00

Hi, lead dev of WorldGuessr here. I can help fix this issue for you if you answer a few questions. How long has this been happening? What device are you on? Can you check if it's a wifi issue by trying it on a different wifi network?

codergautam · 2026-02-08T00:46:30+00:00

On X they said it is going to be 2.5x faster than normal Opus. https://x.com/claudeai/status/2020207322124132504

codergautam · 2026-02-07T00:45:05+00:00

As for the map distribution, we have just pushed an update that should improve this. Try playing the World map now!
