TimeGuessr
Study a photograph and guess both the year it suggests and the place it was taken.
DleBox's guide
TimeGuessr shows a photograph and asks two questions: when, and where. You place a year and a location. The score reflects how close you were on both. A car, a hemline, a sign font, or a skyline under construction can date the picture. A script, a plate, or a tree can place it. One photo has to answer both, so a perfect year in the wrong country is only half the round.
The daily set of photos is shared. DleBox does not host the pictures and does not give years or coordinates. The button opens timeguessr.com. WhereTaken also starts from a photo, and it asks only for a pin. TimeGuessr's extra axis is the year. Framed starts from a film still and asks for a title, not a date. Those are different rows on purpose.
This page will not describe today's images. A written description of a distinctive building would be a spoiler. The original game is where the photo and the scoring live. We do not invent a reset timezone for that site.
Rules
- Each photo asks for a year and a place.
- Closer answers score better on both axes.
- The daily photos are shared.
- A right year can still miss the map.
- DleBox does not describe the photos.
Why we like it
- ✓ Objects in the frame are the clues.
- ✓ Place and year can be solved separately.
- ✓ A near year still counts for something.
Play TimeGuessr when you like looking carefully. It is a bad fit if you want a single hidden word. Our hosted game does not use photographs, years, or maps.
A decade is often available from a car or a haircut before the city is available from a sign. DleBox does not split today's photo into those two hunts, and it does not show the picture. timeguessr.com scores the year and the pin together. Our job is to warn you that a perfect year on the wrong continent is half a miss. WhereTaken will not ask for the year. Do not make TimeGuessr do only one of its jobs. Both answers live on the same photograph, and the score notices when you skip one. A year without a place is unfinished.
