GeoGuessr is a website where you are thrown into a random spot in the world on Google Maps streetview, and you have to try and guess where you are.
It’s fun to play just by itself, to see how close you can get, but it’s even more fun when you put a spin on it: writing a description of each random area you’re given.
During the last stream, chat and I played a game of GeoGuessr together. Just like before when we’ve done this, we were given five random locations anywhere in the world, and we had to guess where they were.
But for each one, we had to write a short description of the area, trying to make it as vivid and detailed as possible.
You can see all the locations, descriptions, and guesses for the locations here.
How did I do against chat? Watch and find out!
After that, we did our first “Subscriber’s Pick” for the prompt section. A random subscriber in chat was chosen (this time it was RealSayakaMaizono), and they chose/forced us to write this prompt: Your 80th rewatch of the Shrek movie trilogy is causing you a few problems, as family and friends seem to shrug and push you away…
If you want to join us and help write a story by trolling in chat, or share your own writing for feedback, then we’d love to have you. We stream on Twitch every Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday at 6:30pm-10:30pm (U.S. Eastern Standard Time).
And you missed the stream, you can still watch them on the YouTube channel or watch the full stream reruns.
Hope to see you next time, friend!
