Drawing the map…

The game names a place in Romania — perhaps a town, a fortress, a lake or a mountain peak — and you drop the pin where you think it is. Ten rounds, scored by kilometres, and at the end you learn how well you know the map.

203 places · 10 rounds · monasteries, fortresses, archaeological sites, towns, villages and mountains

The short idea. Drop the pin on the map and press “Lock answer”. The score falls with distance: 1,000 points for a place guessed exactly, a few hundred at 100 kilometres. Rounds under 50 kilometres keep a streak that pays a bonus. The quadrant hint halves the distance points; the streak bonus stays unchanged.

How to play

  • You get ten different places, one per round: fortresses, archaeological sites, towns, villages, mountains, lakes and other landmarks.
  • Drop the pin with a click or a tap; move it with another click or with the arrow keys, and Enter locks the answer like the button.
  • The score starts at 1,000 points per round and falls with distance: about 660 at 50 kilometres, 435 at 100, under 200 past 200 kilometres.
  • Rounds guessed within 50 kilometres keep a streak: each streak round after the first adds 50 points per level, up to +250.
  • The hint names the quadrant of the place — north-east, south-west and the others — and halves the distance points; the streak bonus stays unchanged.
  • After each round you see the true place, the miss distance and the county. Your best score is saved between visits.

The map and the places

The list includes all 194 places from Locul zilei and nine places kept from the game's previous pool. Cozia Massif and Cozia Monastery are separate places. Coordinates come from the source projects; each county is checked against the county map and shown after the round.
