New cities, features, and improvements. We add content regularly, so check back for the latest.
We've added a fresh batch of city dispatches and regional notebooks to the Travel Stories section. New pieces cover cities across Southeast Asia, the Balkans, and the Pacific Coast, along with updated tips for reading street-level clues in dense urban environments. Head to Travel Stories to read the latest field notes from our editorial team.
We've refreshed recognition tips and editorial content for over a dozen city guides, including updated photography for Tokyo, Buenos Aires, and Lisbon. City guides now include a live local time display so you can orient yourself to the city's timezone as you read.
Dark mode has been refined across all editorial pages — city guides, travel stories, and the how-to-play section. Contrast ratios have been improved for long-form reading, and the region card grid now adapts more gracefully in dark environments. The theme toggle in the header persists across sessions.
Athens is now available across applicable regions. Walking footage covers the historic centre, the area around the Acropolis, and quieter residential neighbourhoods — each with its own distinct texture of marble, graffiti, and orange trees.
The player facepile in the top bar now has a calmer, more premium look. Avatars use lighter borders and less visual noise. The players popover has clearer structure: name, badges, and status on separate lines, plus a combined 'Host · You' badge when you're the host. Status indicators are subtler: a small presence dot for 'Thinking…' and a muted green check for 'Guessed.' The facepile feels secondary to the timer, keeping focus on the game.
We added dozens of new walking videos across Europe, the Americas, and Asia. The game now features hundreds of cities to explore. Regions have been refreshed with fresh content, with no spoilers on which ones.
Gameplay sound effects are now available in multiplayer mode. You'll hear the same satisfying feedback when you make a guess, whether you nail it or miss by a mile. A sound toggle in the header lets you mute or unmute at any time.
Room creation is now more reliable on the first try. We improved retry logic and reduced issues with serverless instance timing. Creating a game and clicking Start Game should work smoothly.
You can now mute and unmute the walking video during gameplay. The sound button in the header controls both the video audio and game sound effects. Works in both solo and multiplayer modes.
Top three players in each round now have clearer rank badges with improved contrast. The number display has been updated for better visibility against the badge background.
We continue to grow our walking video library. This update includes new cities from the Middle East, Oceania, and expanded coverage in existing regions. More places to explore and guess.
