Getting Started

How the games, tickets and memberships fit together — the short version

Four ways to play

Every mode is five rounds and up to 10,000 points a round — what changes is how the place is revealed to you.

  • Time Slider — drag to fade today's Street View over a historical photo
  • Scratch Quest — brush the old image away to uncover the new one
  • Spot On — one photo, no help, put the pin exactly where it was taken
  • Mapster — a satellite view with no labels, across ten themes

Alone or against friends

Any mode can be played solo, or as a session where everyone gets the same five locations.

  • Up to 20 players in one session, on their own time
  • Standings update as each player finishes a round
  • Gold and Platinum open sessions; anyone can join one by link
  • Sessions stay open for seven days, so nobody has to be online at once

Golden Tickets buy hints

A ticket unlocks a clue about the location — and unlike revealing the image, a hint costs you no points at all.

  • 10 to start, then 3 a month free, 10 with Gold, 20 with Platinum
  • Earned by Daily Trip streaks, weekly top-3 finishes and creating locations
  • Up to 5 hints in a single round
  • Buyable in packs if you run dry

One trip a day, worldwide

Daily Trip gives every player on the planet the same five locations, in each of the four modes.

  • Fixed settings, so the run is the same challenge for everyone
  • Resets at midnight UTC and never counts against your daily limit
  • Scores stack up on the weekly leaderboard, Monday to Sunday
  • Play five days in a week for bonus tickets, seven for more

See where you landed

Your profile keeps the running record; the leaderboard is where the week is settled.

  • Weekly Daily Trip standings, counted per mode
  • Top three in a mode take 10, 5 and 2 tickets — if at least 3 players finished
  • Rounds played on Unlimited are not ranked
  • Your profile holds your stats, badge, ticket balance and membership

How far an account gets you

Playing without one works, but the daily allowance is what separates the tiers.

  • Guest — one Time Slider round a day, no tickets
  • Free — 3 a day across Time Slider and Scratch Quest, 3 each for Spot On and Mapster
  • Gold — 10 a day, creates multiplayer sessions and your own locations
  • Platinum — 20 a day per mode, unlimited session creation
