GeoCompass: World Explorer
Get to know the globe
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Fly from city to city and learn where the world's places really are. Is Cairo north of Tokyo? Which way is Lima? Every continent and 150+ countries.
GeoCompass is a geography game that teaches you where places are, not just what they're called.
You start in a city. The next stop appears, and you have to figure out where it is. Answer, and a little plane flies you there. Then the next place is waiting.
TWO WAYS TO PLAY
North or south? – The easy mode. Is the next place north or south of where you are? Great for younger kids and quick rounds.
Compass – The hard mode. Drag on the map to turn the compass needle towards the next place. The closer your bearing, the more points you get: 100 for a perfect aim, nothing if you're 90° off or more.
THE WHOLE WORLD
Play on the world map, on any continent, or inside a single country. More than 150 countries have a map of their own, from big ones like Brazil and India to small ones like Slovenia and Fiji. Every map has its own high score, so there's always another one to beat.
MADE FOR LEARNING
The map shows coastlines and borders but no names, so you can't just read the answer. After every round you see exactly where the place is and how far off you were. Ten rounds make a game, and every game visits new places.
