Welcome to the world of Geoguess — a fun game that combines the thrill of geography with the excitement of guessing! In this blog post, we’ll cover how to easily set up and play this captivating game, along with some troubleshooting tips.

Getting Started

Geoguess allows you to compete with your friends by guessing locations in a series of rounds. The game is designed for multiplayer sessions with up to five friends. Here’s how to start:

• Create a Room: One player begins by creating a room and choosing the size of the game.
• Join the Game: Other players can join the room by typing the same name as the creator.
• Play the Game: Enjoy as you guess random locations in five rounds!

Features of Geoguess

Geoguess comes packed with amazing features:

• Multiplayer gameplay for a fun group experience.
• Progressive Web App (PWA) and responsive design for on-the-go play.
• Custom map options using geojson files.
• History tracking to keep records of your high scores.
• A scoring system to determine the best geographer among friends.

Deploying Your Own Server

Due to the Google Maps API pricing, Geoguess limits server access. However, you can deploy your own game server to play as much as you want! For detailed instructions on how to set this up, please visit this guide.

Understanding the Code

Geoguess was forked from GeoGuess Master Web. Imagine this code as a robust tree, where the branches are the various features and functionalities that allow you to navigate and interact with different parts of the game. The trunk is the core logic ensuring everything works in unison. Each branch grows in complexity, from player interactions to scoring systems, just as leaves unfurl in the spring to provide shade and nourishment for the entire tree.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

If you encounter any issues while playing or setting up Geoguess, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• Can’t Join the Room: Make sure the room name is spelled correctly and that the room is still active.
• Game Not Loading: Check your internet connection or try refreshing the page.
• Custom Maps Not Working: Ensure your geojson file is properly formatted and compatible.
• Deployment Problems: Review the server logs for errors and verify that all dependencies are correctly installed.
