GeoLineup is a free web game that challenges your sense of world geography.
🗺️ How it works:
- Sort five cities from north to south by dragging them into place
- Get instant feedback with a map to compare your guesses
- Three difficulty levels & continent filters
- Still building up the city database, I already have some more game modes in mind.
- Play instantly – no sign-up, no download, just click and go!

Hi, I'm Wolfgang, a travel and geography enthusiast based in Vienna, Austria. I started GeoLineup as a hobby project while learning to program.
If you like puzzles, trivia, or maps, I’d love your feedback. There’s also a feedback button in-game if you spot any bugs.

I hope you have as much fun playing the game as I had creating it!
Thanks for checking it out – happy sorting!
Hi Wolfgang, thanks for sharing GeoLineup with the Travel Massive community.
This is a really fun game! And a new novel idea on this genre, bravo!
1. Is there a new round each day? Or are there unlimited rounds?
2. It would be interesting to know what continent or hemisphere people are playing from and how their answers compare. If you're logging players IP then you could probably do this analysis later on and get some insights.
3. It's nice and intuitive, and fast. What did you develop the game in?
Hi Ian, thanks very much for your feedback – I really appreciate it! And of course I am glad that you enjoyed the game! On your questions:
1. Currently there are unlimited rounds. However, I am considering to add daily challenges to make it more engaging to compare with friends and share your results.
2. Yes, that will certainly be interesting to see once I have some more data.
3. Thanks! The game logic is plain vanilla JavaScript with Leaflet.js for the maps and Sortable.js for smoother dragging and sorting. For the website around it I used Astro to have a lean and fast experience.
Nic, fun to play, turns out I need to head out to spend some time studying up on my geography! It would be fun to have a leaderboard, as well as most often "misplaced" cities.
Thank you for your feedback and the additional ideas! I am currently looking into account creation and central data storage to allow for leaderboards and challenges. Hence, stay tuned for future updates :)
Nice. Thx. Cheers.
Thanks for your feedback, glad you like it!
Would it be an idea to connect the game with stories of the places as a learning effect?
Yes, that would indeed be a nice addition for my roadmap, thank you!
