About this game

MapTap is a daily geography game. Every day you get five places tied to real events from that exact date, and the game is to find each one on a 3D globe. Tap where you think it is. The closer you land, the higher you score. Then you read what actually happened there: a shipwreck, an invention that failed twice before it worked, a border that moved overnight, someone nobody has heard of who changed something you use every day.

It takes about 2 minutes to play. Tomorrow there are five more, and five more the day after that. Keep a streak alive, see how your score sits against everyone else who played that day, or just against players near you. When 2 minutes is not enough, there is a lot more globe. Practice maps run from plain drills to journeys you retrace one stop at a time: Magellan's expedition, Darwin's voyage on the Beagle, Nellie Bly's race around the world, Ibn Battuta's travels. Find the Flag is a daily of its own. Gauntlet is a timed run at a set of locations everybody gets on the same day. Frontier is a survival run where one bad guess ends it. Versus puts you head to head with another player over five locations, with a rating that follows you around. Flashcards drill a map until it sticks.

There are hundreds of achievements to discover. You can build maps for other players, and play other players' maps!

MapTap plays in 12 languages. MapTap+ is an optional subscription that adds sharper satellite detail on the globe, the full run of practice maps, private groups to play alongside friends, the last 90 days of games you missed, drill sets you build yourself, and the curated Best of MapTap collection.

The daily game is free, and there are no ads in it anywhere, for anyone, ever.
