picking 4 500 there we have a Norway here you get these yellow or these white Dash outer lines they're kind of long in Norway um switch ones have uh shorter ones I think a good way to tell the difference is and if you can't tell by the looking at the length of it look at the the width between the two if the width between the two is shorter that means the lines are longer that's usually maybe a good way to tell um I don't think it's gonna be too North here I'm going like North to Trondheim I think somewhere up here um there's lots of trees so probably even more south now I think about it so we'll go like right around here somewhere and um we have water there so South go somewhere like right here for the best downtown Bergen we'll take it and Final Round Here we just have a Peru uh we have the white concretes on the bottoms here um what else we got what else we got what else we got black might start pulls super dry um it's definitely been the coast with how dry it is it's not like it gets like green the more Inland you go I think it's gonna be someone North too to be honest I think a North guest is my is a good guess here so I'm gonna go somewhere up out here with a road going east to west something like that hope for the best it was even way more North

put a link in the descriptions you guys play today I play tomorrow we learn together we play together we go see you next together and we go for tour together and we do not read together because reading is cringe I have to record the next three or four daily challenge videos in advance so unfortunately I won't have um that many scores at the end of these play links series because I'm going to record like three in like an hour here um so I was trying to explain what I can I think this one should have a couple people because I posted this video a couple uh like an hour or two ago so um round one here should just be Spain we have the also we're playing on a balanced World which is like an insanely more bait and difficult round or uh uh way more difficult um map so do not compare your scores and think you're you're getting worse because your scores are worse this is a much harder map I'm tired of playing ADW I won't have to think on countries and I want to have to like I don't know I just want to challenge myself more I know maybe that's not the best for you guys but I think through me challenge myself I'll talk through my thought process more and hopefully get a better score and Miss countries and it just makes it more fun you know so if I'd like I'll miss a lot of countries when I'm changing the map up a bit because it's just a lot more difficult and missing countries is okay um I have eight seconds left I'm gonna go Northern Spain here because it feels like somewhere over here uh with Spanish

it was just camp paul and it's a free 49 points really so a very very easy seed very very easy round i should say um and i just kind of went to the map to see um to explain the car because i didn't explain it in the time but yeah very distinct you get that in kampala next round yeah and tibet you can also get more east a little slightly more east but it's very central coverage they're only in kampala um but yeah next round here we're going to be in just cynical we had you know very typical senegal rifts in the sky here we can see you get the car visible as well without the tape on the side and we're all the dirt on the side of the roads with these trees lined as well very senegalese um again it's slightly green so i was going to go south east of tuba kind of work south where near north of gambia where maybe i thought it was more green but i ended up not going near there um i don't know but yeah very very standard single is kind of a country i need to work migration guessing on um because i think it's a very learnable learn number learn the whole country so right here i'm just kind of lining up an east to west road where it made sense in hindsight there's a a a railroad to our north there that i should have been looking for but i don't think in the time of recording i was i i didn't make that connection so i didn't really look for the railroad there but still picking up four six again singles a pretty small country so not really losing too many points here um yeah there was a railroad north of that n3 there so very pretty five cable location really i'm sure there's not very many east-west roads with the

um that you get all different types of climates so um but this out there looks pretty pretty similar so uh and here will trigger just explaining his guess is that's why we're kind of waiting on the delay here um and then round three here we're going to be in the philippines we're driving right with gen 4 coverage um with these chevrons and tuk tuks and then this way the coaster or south here um i think i blundered this around pretty pretty extremely um a common thing i do is called the cebu hedge where you just guess cebu because it's like very central philippines you also get english in the philippines as well so that was another another tell that we're going to be in the philippines um and then i was going to zoom in on this sign here because we had a sign with the church and i didn't read i didn't read it i didn't read it i didn't read i read the top verse at st joseph but i didn't read the bombers literally had the address where it said cebu on the right um cebu is an island in in uh in the philippines that's pretty big um or town in the philippines is pretty big and with a catholic church with coaster south this is a very very five cable location but i didn't read cebu but luckily i got the general general location from the vibes um but i blundered it because if i read i knew we're gonna be in cebu i could just scan the south coast and find the catholic church and line it up there but such is life um i think we'll trigger 5k here so um zooming in yeah we had the st joseph church there we knew it was cebu and we knew we had

a link in the description to tomorrow's link to play um and then i'll play you guys play the headmate and then we can compare scores and learn together um yesterday how did i do i did pretty well yesterday had a couple little hiccups um i think something important to note for these games is this is the longest i've ever spent on rounds in my life i don't think i've ever spent longer than 10 seconds on the game in six or seven months um mainly because i i i'm not like it's something i should do more which is why i'm doing this but so when i make hiccups like not knowing the town name or scanning over something that's maybe pretty obvious it's it's a train thing that i haven't really it's a muscle that i haven't really trained as much it's more intuition like immediately recognizing countries and getting regions fairly quickly so getting further into signage and things like that is something i'm working on so um please do not well actually me in the comments i'm learning as well okay um i'm used to zero following second npc not one minute painting so let's start and let's see how we do today we're gonna be in sweden again we have gaten which is swedish for street and we have these white dash airlines excuse me i think we're gonna be south again it seems pretty flat um swedish flag as well everyone is probably gonna get the country here i like very south sweden um so i'm gonna go maybe let's go in the little town here savage joe we're gonna be on this street right here probably imagine um i mean no but yeah so very flat in south sweden hopefully good guess we'll see maybe even more south actually i like it even more south risk for the biscuit let's go let's find another little small village let's go here okay oh wow that makes sense um just

to your weekly dose of geo guesser fun whilst i am hard at work editing the latest mission um yeah it's going well the editing it's going to be a great series i hope it's worth the wait for you so hang in there um yeah we're on schedule for a pre-christmas release date so all is good on that front meanwhile it's going to be another play-along video for you guys to enjoy and this is one that i i did do a while ago and it got a fair amount of views 600 000 views on the channel so i think it's high time i did another one and it's called interesting photo spheres in obscure countries yeah one round in particular springs to mind i was sure we were in a spanish city so i was scouring the coast of spain turns out we were in a huge algerian city that i'd never heard of so let's hope that there's more surprising intriguing and interesting photo spheres like that today let's play it no moving no time limit let's do it where are we going to pop out today okay here we go it okay is that okay it was taken by a dude called jean-pierre garcia and i can't really escape the names in the bottom right i mean my eyes will just be drawn to it i'm wondering if this is palmyra i don't know but palmyra springs to mind i remember it on top gear when jeremy james and hamster drove i can't quite remember that they drove they made their own race track or something or they drove around here but of course since then palmyra was destroyed by those buggers isis so i don't know whether this whether this is palmyra but this photo sphere predates that which is i think unlikely because that probably got destroyed in about 2014 or this isn't palmyra in which case i don't really know where it would be if truth be told but it could easily be a roman structure in anywhere palestine israel turkey but the people we're seeing i think i'm muslim yeah yeah i think so it's hard to say i mean that's a headscarf a muslim attire i think but that doesn't mean we're not in palestine jordan even so let's i'm going to go into palmyra if i can find it which i think is in syria again i i do have to point out that i am well not only did i have a few beers on the weekend so my head's a bit cloudy anyway but i'm not playing a lot of geoguesser i'm only editing so it's a total i'm using it as a get out of jail card if i do anything embarrassing geography wise um anyway so where's palmyra basically i bet i won't find it will i there's damascus i mean where is it i don't know where it is might have to speed this up got it okay it's in the middle of nowhere there it is there is a town around here you know there's there's normal buildings which we do have let's have a look at this then so according to this the town is slightly to the north of the of whatever you would call this and there's mountains in the north as well do we have mountains yes we do uh but of course as we've learned the compass can be wrong compass definitely can be wrong palmyra airport can't see that but basically there's a lot of temples down here i would say it's all of this one thing i will say is how badly did they destroy this i mean how badly can you destroy it i mean i guess you could blow it up with sticks of dynamite and bombs and really destroy it couldn't you i guess but you'd need a lot of heavy i mean is this post ex you know post destruction or pre i don't know maybe they did a bit of a [ __ ] job of it who knows but i am i've got to go for this now i've got to go for it is it anything else here i can use at all it does look like we're in a temple of sorts i'll go i'll go there no i'm going to go back where i was oh my god we're nowhere near we are nowhere near okay so what's probably happened is palmyra did get destroyed and there are probably no photo spheres remaining of it or if there are i'd like to see them no we are in algeria again so we finally get to see what that city was called in my last video iran there it is iran i thought it i was convinced it was in spain but we are in the same country and we are in a place called tim gad tim gad not steve gad no tim gad and there it is it's a roman amphitheater so it's not babylonian i don't know what palmyra actually is but it's a roman one and it kind of did look quite roman but i never would have found that not in a million years well done if you got that who the hell got that let me know honestly in the

comments and why the hell you knew that i wanna i wanna be convinced by you that you knew that so that's gonna take some doing if you're lying right next one this looks like it might be portugal no it could no it probably we'll figure it out it's either portugal or brazil but what have we got here sal rai rabil they do sound more portuguese to me and i'd say that the the signs are european as well but i hope i'm right about that god this is interesting maybe okay yeah she's she looks like a tourist possibly a british tourist very pink skinned compared to this woman for example zhao gallego buffarera okay where's the sun because we could be on an island somewhere that's what i'm thinking at the moment sun isn't really making itself known black guy as well and another pretty dark-skinned guy would point more to brazil i i don't know and then the registration plates ah tui tui they are two evans so i would say this is portugal but kind of quite remote because it's a tui kind of safari not safari but you know excursion and there's another one there as well so this i'm thinking this could be a touristy kind of village a bit inland in the algarve right so i'm going to search near the sea in southern portugal then i will go from there okay wish me luck [Music] okay that's interesting i think i think i've ruled out portugal because this is just obviously so hot here yeah that will do me for now so i'm going over to which i'm not completely hopeful about but i'm going over to these um and i'll try this out again i'll speed it up because i'm conscious of the time that this all could take so speeding this up i am in funchal right no funchal is here here we go [Music] hmm yeah it's not looking good not least because it's very flat very very flat the more i look at this the more it looks like brazil but i just don't know at the moment um but yeah that's a very mountainous island is madeira not funchal that's the capital uh so i'm heading over to these now which i think at least in part are also owned by portugal yeah sao miguel right so i'll have a little search here bear with me [Music] okay that is all of the azures done even these ones out here uh so so we've got to be in brazil that's my thought process i don't where am i gonna search here man where am i gonna search god damn okay it still feels like we're on an island somehow okay i'm gonna just skim the coast of brazil quite loosely and see if i find anything that i think i've seen because there's a lot on these signs there's a lot [Music] okay i can go back to that i think there's an island i think there is an island off the coast somewhere please be an island how about this one no can't be here can it cabo verde i guess it could be i'm starting to think it could be [Music] okay we're not on that island there are other ones there's quite a few i'm gonna go on the top one first i've got something gat ass there it's promising but it ain't it's good but it's not quite right at the moment [Music] [Applause] oh oh have we got it i'm sure i saw that sal rai sal rai come on this has to be a rabil come on yes i knew i was onto something here this is why it looked in my defense across between portugal and brazil right but what was really playing on my mind was these vehicles you know the black registrations and the fact that they're there's just a convoy of like four by fours told me that we weren't we're somewhere weird but somewhere that you might go on holiday nonetheless anyway let's try and find it now finally he's too wet we should be able to do this i just need some of my geo guessing ability to come back a bit found this cabeco dos tarafes jiao gallego i found that finally so zhao gallego is that way oh my god man either things aren't very well mapped on here or i've got monumentally confused i think part of the reason i'm getting confused is the compass is probably wrong to be fair thunder i think we might be here you know all in all i just think the i think the compass is wrong but we probably are here i think we're about there yes oh my god that was so confusing so obviously i would have sped that up a bit for you because that took me ages to figure out uh firstly to figure out that we're in cabo verde um but then secondly actually where the hell we were on that particular island in cabo verde because

the compass i don't think was right but i can't even be asked to figure out whether it actually wasn't i'm just gonna carry on well done if you also got that oh my god okay what's this guy doing i thought he was trying to shoot us then but i think he's just holding a phone i think he's skyping um face timing whatever people say oh my god i did not expect an islamic hang on a minute we are in pakistan allama iqbal faculty of arts kabul university wait a minute um so we're not in pakistan we're in kabul but i'm still confused as to why it's snowing what do i know um yeah there's an afghanistan flag right let's get to work with this let's try and make this a bit quicker this particular round kabul to be fair is quite yeah i mean you're not a million miles from well the himalayas quite frankly it's probably quite high above sea level and near places like tajikistan which is very mountainous so kabul you hear it a lot in the news and you presume it's hot and maybe it is in the summer but sure as that ain't hot at the moment so let's see if we can find this very distinctive looking building there this is a good one so we're looking for a university and in particular a llama iqbal faculty of arts kabul university okay search for a minute and then i'll speed it up if i haven't found it so i'm looking for yeah some of these official looking places um [Music] universities what do they look like on the map yes we've got a few here kardan university salam university are we recording we are embassy of pakistan let's also look at the layout of the road here it's running north to south there's one running north to south zowell but it ain't that we don't think okay i'm gonna keep searching in this manner and i'll speed it up for you [Music] okay right i found kabul university so i think we're probably around here somewhere um seeing as i've found nothing else anywhere else faculty of arts so we've got science journalism physics so it's only a matter of time i mean that that looks a lot like it look at that faculty of arts but look at the building social science are you sure i think that could be it you know the road it's going directly north but slightly northwest which is also true of that for me that's the building so i'm going for it 18 yards come on get in excellent stuff yep pretty obvious um thought process the whole way through there just a matter of finding it and finding that distinctive building shape i said that at the start um well done if you got that let's move on to the penultimate round right okay now straight away iran wow iran i'm not sure i've ever had iran before this is a complete first afghanistan i don't know if i had that before either if i'm perfectly honest but anyway we're in iran this might be pretty tricky but presumably we are in the capital tiran right maybe not maybe not it's a pretty developed country this could be somewhere else for all i know i can't quite read that street name all i've got is mama mercy as a shop name that is all i've got and that bosh it's a boss shot there's a drill up there okay so bosh mama mercy mercy mama and that which alludes to some scales so it could be a that could be a prison look at the fence or it could be a court of law yeah look so we've got some stuff but yeah i don't know let's go to iran here what what cities do we like we could easily be in shiraz isfahan mashhad but i'm going into tehran i'll go into tehran and because look i'm not going to find this realistically and i haven't got time to search for hours and hours if i search for that hours and hours i could find it but i just haven't got the time unfortunately and i just don't see me finding this unless i just happen to chance upon i mean the roads are adding up but unless i chance upon a law court or a boss shop in the next few seconds really i wonder if that thing there alludes to tehran do you know what i think it does i'm talking about this let's get them lined up not quite but if we go to another city uh isfahan has got the same at the start for some reason i guess it's oh i guess that's the an because it's backwards isn't it i think um i wonder if we can get it from that gorgon look it's making sense are there any other ands that one no it's not making any more sense than the original one tehran so yeah i'm gonna stick to that you never know i'm gonna give myself a couple of minutes here to yeah to just see if i can stumble across this prison [Music] okay i'm gonna go here because there's something there i don't know what it is and i can't find anything better um it's a very big city so yeah i can't find anything better and that's about as much time as i'm willing to spend as i search even more yeah no well done if you got this guys but i couldn't i couldn't go on much longer here we go here's my guess we might not even be in tehran we were in tehran and we were up here oh my god well that's not the direction i thought the road was going at all there's a government office there there's a tool store i'll give you that tool store

a big city so that helped but anyway um yeah again well done if you got a perfect score there um i think you needed a bit of luck but last round jesus that's mental what is that looks like an old gold mining or some sort of old frontier contraption reminds me of the roller coaster klondike at drayton manor park which no longer exists uh but it was very rickety anyway where are we are we in canada no i was going to say alaska canada because of the frontier but as i've moved around i don't think that is the case at all gee whiz um bryce genovia bryce mate bryce bryce where's the sun sun is just oh look at that bryce genevoir photographer bryce jennifer so as i looked at this as i looked around and absorbed it all i was thinking maybe namibia i don't know why i arrived at namibia but i i don't know i don't know there's no point me rambling on about it but and namibia popped into my mind now is bryce genevoir the kind of name that you would get in namibia or south africa we've got a black dude and two white dudes so yeah i just think it's quite warm here what is that is that almost like a human figure there but i think that's a coincidence so bryce genevoir an old god i guess it could be australia south africa i think this is going to have to be a wild guess though ultimately that looks quite old though that building this looks really old this is an absolute stumper but that this is what this map is is for this is what it's all about i wonder could we be somewhere like this you know i might just go for it desert explorer's adventure center you know um he's the compass right if he's worth his weight insult trusted street view photographer then you would think the compass is correct so let's bear that in mind you know what i'm gonna go with my hunch because i've got [ __ ] all else and i'm gonna go namibia and i'll go there goodness wait a minute okay at least i got the right continent um that would you believe is bloody caboverd the same country we had earlier but looking well not looking very similar at all there it is so it's an ancient hangar this is it old industry old industry but that's amazing we were literally one island up we could have got a we probably could have got a ferry from this island to that island in

doing well i'm very good looking forward to christmas and looking forward to releasing the latest mission across wales last time we did weather spoons so this time we're heading back to the good stuff we're heading back to the juicy stuff interesting photo spheres in obscure countries yet to get a perfect score on this as you can see 19785 is the best i've done so far but i've only played it twice this is good though because it means i've got a real challenge i love a good challenge let's do this if you are new around here um and you want to play along i recommend you do it's really fun follow the instructions in the description uh oh we're going i've clicked start here we go yes first one there's no way i'm going to get a perfect score today this this is a really hard map it's really tough okay here we go i'm gonna need luck i'm gonna need favorable rounds right what have we got here looks like we might be in africa judging by these dudes who look pretty damn african this guy has got i think that's a horrible psg shirt aren't there that almost looks like an african badge there but i think it's just light coming through the van yeah ignore that um yeah just scanning these guys for any clues that they might have this guy's got an interesting hat on a muslim hat i would say right but then over here we have tourists and i think they're chinese tourists not judging by how they look but rather the name down here of the person who took the photo looks pretty chinese to me right oh god and as usual we've got some writing that is just tantalizingly illegible i can't tell what what what language it is all i want to know is what language it is at the very least um right some of the rocks we've got on the floor here look like they might be quite volcanic we've got a [ __ ] the remnants of a fire probably not too sensible got a woman here chinese or japanese taking a selfie i mean yeah it doesn't take a genius to work out that this is a volcano caldera the sun we can't really use and that's it guys that is about it apart from this okay so this let's see where the c is this is semi useful to see i'm still getting used to this compass ah yes lots of you commented didn't you classic compass on resume game yes come on get in right that's north that is north interesting i wouldn't have said north let's get in and and see if we can have a look would it be madagascar perhaps i don't know it could be any of these things couldn't it comoros what we're looking for is a pretty defined a crater a volcanic crater near a coast so yeah i guess we just scan a few coastlines until we find one this is extremely unlikely that i find this guys um wait a minute look at that that can't be it can it just as i said extremely unlikely that i find this and let me just explain why it's extremely unlikely well we could be anywhere in africa however north coast these guys it's it's the muslim looking hat and i think these are these guys also look more eastern african i don't know that's just what i'm vibing but it's this northern shoreline i'll come back to this obviously it can't be that many places you know i guess it could be there for example the north coast of that island but on the whole it can't be any of the northern coast of africa because it's too deserty can't be the south of africa because of the compass same for these bits here that's what i'm trying to say um it could only be these sorts of places around here reunion mauritius anyway i've explained myself uh to the people who will accuse and we're back here and i think this is matching up pretty well i won't lie we've got you can clearly see there's beaches down there uh and you can see the coast goes around there the road does it bend probably and we've got this container there should be a building the other side of the road which i can't see so i'm only i'm only 50 50 or less gonna have a quick look again and speed it up just to see if i find anything better yeah i've checked all the places that i i conceivably think that this could be guys so i am going to go in this place that i found so very early on this would be incredible if this is right it's right 78 yards that's incredible i'm so happy with that one i can't believe i found that so quickly

but there it is the comoros who got that let me know uh if you got that i'm guessing it was a similar kind of thought process if you did moving on perfect score is still on um i won't lie i thought it was over in the early stages of that round i thought there's no way i'm going to get this how am i going to get this anyway moving on we are now in somewhere like the pharaoh islands or svalbard yeah faroe islands i'm thinking but it's it's been a while greenland is is another possibility it's been a while ah yeah there we go there's the greenland flag great um uh so we'll get this one this this shouldn't be too hard inu cluby nap i'm guessing nappy fiat is the place just gonna see if the audio levels are correct no just kidding um yeah napafia is gonna be the place i'd love to go to greenland looks so cool let's get in there let's have a look at the compass the sea could be i would have thought it's probably in that direction rather than that one no no it i guess it's more likely to be in that direction okay nappy fiat yeah i am hoping that it i'm right in saying that napi fiat is where we are because if it's not this is going to be a little bit harder and take it a little bit longer time oh dear right okay i'm so sorry if i've uh scrolled over it inus i'm hoping that that's where we are now right i'm gonna have a little search for innus toot wish me luck no dang right we're going to have to scour the map and and find somewhere that that links up with this um so lining this up then i'm looking for a fjord that's that kind of yeah that correlates with this basically with a peninsula in the middle over there right here we go wish me luck this is probably the best thing i've found but it doesn't really make sense i've searched far and wide i've done a lot of searching um yeah i i don't think that's right but i've done enough searching now so uh i am going to make a guess this is wrong yeah right what the hell is going on here then i don't believe it wow that is this coast here is so much further away damn you we were in quaker tatsuwack if that's remotely close see i sir i literally searched this place and decided that it didn't add up that's definitely one area that i'm not great at sometimes is when there's like a bay and i mean it can be confusing the shape of the coastline and the distance and the compass all of those three

factors and that's an example where i've i've ruled something out and it's actually correct baffling um anyway we move on it's not going to be a perfect score today but maybe you can beat me today right here we go here's our third round and that is wow that is wow that's really cool i would go out on a limb and say this is like a sort of arabic or muslim country such as i don't know palestine yemen um morocco maybe don't know i've never seen anything like this that's ah there's a there is a flag there is a flag but it's pretty damn hard to make it out i won't lie um blue red and green definitely with possibly i'm really speculating but possibly a white crescent and star but that might just be me cooking that up in my head because i think it's a muslim country right let's see where the sun is let's well let's fully look around first nicholas zelizek is the bloke who took it yeah fertile sort of land down there pretty fertile ah okay i think i might have got it fertile land that looks too north to be yemen for example certainly is that flag azerbaijan i think it might be i know the azerbaijan flag but i was i'd ruled it out i just thought we are too far south for that uh so azerbaijan is over here yeah more arid probably more dry and barren than the mediterranean because it's over towards these deserty reaches anyway got a lot of work to do got to find this place oh christ maybe we're down there maybe we're up here i want to say further down here actually and i've just seen this mountain range it yeah more close to iran would make sense for me so but where the okay right we've got a lake we've got a city is that a city i think so and we've got right okay this is this is adding up now this is starting to starting to get somewhere i think big body of water over there that's north yeah that doesn't make sense unless the compass is wrong which it easily could be so if that was north well where's the sun christ no the sun is in yeah that that looks like it's right that way around with the compass judging by the sun oh this is a roller coaster okay there's that that's a big lake which we have in the distance big reservoir but would we be able to see that i guess so from over here we're obviously looking for some sort of ancient monument as well monument uh yeah whatever you would call it castle couldn't gut could we be there remember we're looking out closer to this ah i was going to say the closer to this the more realistic it is we've also got that remember which could be either of those two things that one or that one oh i just don't know that just isn't particularly adding up to me the lake is too near it seems but again perspectives can be wrong in my case oh man okay uh i'm already off the perfect score remember so it's not quite as desperate if you know i mean i'm just starting to doubt this whole area now to be honest i'm going to go for it i'm just going to click on this i don't think it can be right but uh let's try it where's that what country is that guys first of all let's have a look here that's where we were there's the town to our east there's the rest of it there's the little lake and i believe we were looking at that the aras dam lake and it is azerbaijan i'm a bit confused as to how the borders are working there guys a sealed off enclave or is that because armenia took that over recently i did know i did notice in the news that um armenia were attacking azerbaijan's land i don't know who started it so don't call me out on that so maybe i don't think the maps would have would have recognized that if it was uh untoward but yeah i never would have thought to look in that little enclave in a million years i didn't even know that existed

let me know in the comments if that's a new change on the map or not but wow yeah that's a tough one uh also let me know if you got that right because that's very impressive let's do the last but one round now taco parrier main road to mata lot or mate lot mate a lot i mate a lot don't i mate galara road salibia lighthouse kilometers lots of signage over here taco village olympics harvest well it's in english um rankin production took the imagery the sun is right up in the sky well would you look at that uh over here we've got a um it's a beer but can't read it that that just looks like a great sign but we can't read it because the imagery is very grainy here these guys right okay i'm starting to think now these kind of look like islanders by islanders i mean jonah from tonga you know that sort of thing um yeah so maybe yeah maybe something like tonga or samoa and we're driving on the left so i think that would back that up i presume um yeah so and that's about all we've got but we do know that taco is the name of the village that we're in let's just see if there's anything that gives away you know what what country is what island it is um something parts after lane oh i don't think yeah i don't think we're gonna get it and this could be quite tricky it's definitely gonna be quite tricky unless i happen to chance upon it like i did in the first round so we're looking at these sorts of place this is just uh caught my eye takalao oh wow that is literally just nothing isn't it skeleton of an island um right so taco parrier main road these are probably what we need to look at actually salibia lighthouse matalot i think we want to be looking for mata loss i'm going to call it mate lot uh mate a lot so i've just realized mate a lot sounds like shag a lot doesn't it i didn't mean didn't mean that earlier um sadly that's not true i meant i say mate a lot don't i mate mate mate um right yes i'm looking for mate a lot which is now i can't call it anything else what's that damn letters in the wrong order uh yeah okay i'm gonna keep looking american samoa and very soon if i don't have much luck as usual i will speed things up for you but i'm searching [Music] the islands the pacific islands uh yeah i can't find this place for love nor money i really can't i'm convinced it's somewhere near australia i don't know why the people are driving on the left the signs to the names but uh i've honestly i think i've searched everywhere yeah i give up regrettably she's going to try something else before i entirely give up um and search over in the caribbean because there are similarities uh mainly the english you know the the the british influence if you like no the names are too british i think might as well be in britain really with some of these names cooper's town blackwood village marsh harbour um yeah i don't know where to go from here cayman islands last one port of spain trinidad come on taco i don't believe it that's crazy man that is the last place i was going to look in fact i started zooming out and then i thought oh i don't think i've searched there why not that's amazing and it makes sense because i think it's a x british but it's very close to venezuela so it's got that spanish blend and as i zoomed in i thought yeah maybe that there's something there and there it is taco i saw it and mate a lot is down there oh my goodness me wow i was just about to go back to american samoa which would have been the worst score imaginable right where are we are we there let's find out taco [Music] can i get this right i think we could be there yeah i'd like to get a perfect score now if we can taco main road oh 3.5 3.5 right that makes sense yeah that makes sense i'm doing it nine yards come on oh i'm so glad i got that one because it was getting a bit desperate i didn't

want to just guess somewhere random but that's what i was looking at until trinidad and tobago came to our rescue thank you trinidad and tobago don't forget tobago last one uh this is to get us over 20 000 and maybe even beat my best score i can't remember if i can do that right i've just looked at the name um i didn't mean to but i did it's done gla glo gloya me jesus what a hard name to say what are you playing at gloria mahigissi okay we've got a shadow and the sun is kind of in the north which puts us maybe in the south southern hemisphere right yeah so god this could this could be an obscure country well it it is going to be um but it could be hard to work it out is what i'm trying to say right what language do we have that doesn't seem like english ojay is not really a combo of letters that's usually seen in the english language this guy i thought he was swearing at someone and his mates trying to discourage him don't swear to him don't don't don't you you'll aggravate him anyway christian country we're in africa aren't we we are in africa archveche archeveche right and that's pretty much it are there any flags i've got to just completely search for flags would the maker of this map include eswatini or lesotho well i doubt it's those anyway because it would yeah there's there's google street view in those countries so i think we're looking at potentially zimbabwe mozambique maybe we're a bit further north than that zambia angola tanzania that would be difficult but we're either high up altitude wise or we're quite far south because the the trees aren't super super tropical but they're getting there um and we also have the colorful it's very it's yeah it's a christian african country uh which doesn't really really help me a lot um archae vacher veche is that a town i don't see how i'm going i don't see where i go with this archer vetcher namibia botswana i just it doesn't look like botswana we know that i'm looking for countries that have places with e on the end this kind of does kalu kwembe namibe okay oh dear mozambique let's have a little look at this ah okay and gotcha and gotcha i like that i like that i like the che at the end that's the best thing we've found yet and it is sure as hell an obscure country i am of course just trying to find archer veche even though it might not be a place because what else can i do as a result of that i think it's kind of that's it for me really um podja pot oja oja but again like that might not be the town probably isn't no i'm gonna go back to mozambique guys and reluctantly put a marker down um somewhere it's fairly a big city where it's fairly mountainous how's tete okay now i feel christmassy um right uh mountainous place liching how about that let's go there this is a wild guess this is definitely not right but can you imagine if i got the right i'll be very very pleased with the right country here we go ah right not a million miles away 865 miles away let's see here okay oh that is the democratic republic of congo didn't mention that at all and we're in a city called bukhavu we're not far from a huge lake like kivu which i didn't see any water at all there um but there it is the arche veche so arche veche probably means church in some language could be french i don't know i can't i haven't got the brain power to come contemplate that at the moment we were a few countries away one two

that just i believe is wrong i'm not saying i was right but i i don't know what happened there maybe one of you can work that out let's move on though let me know if you did get a perfect score and this looks incredible and it it's another one of those ancient roman or yeah i would say i'm no historian but it's gonna be one of those roman or ancient greek uh or an ancient civilization built this i'm gonna i'm gonna stick my neck out and say and this is gonna be nion impossible isn't it we know that um well we don't know a lot here we're obviously going to be in the northern hemisphere there's only a few countries this could be um you know around the realm of the roman empire or the middle east the babylonian kind of regions but even better than that we've got an arabic name that has taken this muad bu mood muadbu mood and it's it's not just arabic it's and again i'm not an expert at this kind of thing but that sounds to me to be kind of iranian iraqi kind of name might be wrong you know and even the fact that it's taken by an arabic named person doesn't categorically mean we're you know we could be in sicily it might be a tourist but it's just odds we're working with odds here that's what you've got to work with so uh i might be i might be wrong about that iraq thing i think i'm going off mahmoud muad bhumud i think i'm going off like president's names here mahmoud abbad what was his name the iranian president i ain't gonna say that anyway this is incredible by the way like can you imagine what this was like as a city i mean absolutely amazing for this still to be here in some way i'm not going to get this there is no there's not much point in researching this could be in turkey it could be in syria it's quite green isn't it and we've got mountains in the distance big mountains over there but it is quite green i don't think and look at the grass as well you know we've got like little weeds and thistles and stuff i don't think we would be last time we were in tunisia weren't we which is always an option oh we've got we've got an o u n which we haven't got in the name but i know you is good so we could we could be in tunisia very easily and this could be like a roman structure so what i'm gonna do guys is i'm gonna have a little bit of a look on the map and this will be hugely sped up um right now i'm searching in tunisia just to see if any roman sites jump out of me on the map then i'll line it up to any surrounding mountains and the shape of the if if we if we zoom in on the correct roman site i'll probably get it that's the good news and that's why i'm searching wish me luck the last one was actually in this country wasn't it algeria which the romans also you know all the coast they had so i will i will look in the northern reaches of algeria actually and just see if i can find any big ones hey i like this guys um in one screenshot there's two bou's bou boumoued so this sounds algerian these names so that makes me feel a bit better about this i'll keep searching just after i've stopped sneezing oh it's huge algeria is so big and you've got to zoom in so far to find these things i'll i'm finding one roman as soon as i find one that says roman i'm done i think i'm done i think i'm done i haven't seen anything better than this seems to be a lot around here lollius urbicus sounds pretty damn roman quintus lollius urbicus um let's just go for it i'm dreading a terrible score here there you go that's not terrible that is not terrible we were directly south of there and we were here oh tim gad roman ruins i wonder if that's where we were before it definitely wasn't the same photo sphere but it could have been a different part of tim gad don't think it was no i think it was you know i think we had a different photo sphere in that same place because i remember saying tim gad as opposed to steve gad wow points wise this is okay we knew you know we know we're not gonna get a perfect score here so it's just about keeping those points up

keeping those points up that was a bit lucky in the sense that i'd had an algerian roman round before but so would you well those of you who watch that video next one right now this is a far-flung place from the roman empire we've got asian letters i can't be asked to think of a better phrase than that i don't care anymore sunregis some regis so kind of western words there some regis it's english isn't it could be could be a few languages could be latin again some regis so that's a hotel right so this is the sunregis hotel maybe um can't read where we are it was taken by ben look ben look without the c uh let's hope he brings us some luck here got blue number plates is that is this hong kong we got blue blue and black another place i just can't remember a lot of this stuff got mountains in the background um i'm i think i'm fairly happy with hong kong at the moment can't be taiwan because the number plates can't be china i don't think they'd have sent regis in china i guess in shanghai or something like that they could mountains in the background yeah i think i i can't read anything else so i'm going to make this one a fairly snappy one guys partly because i don't want to have to change my mind halfway through i'm just going to go it can't be japan it can't be south korea because we don't have the it's not the right script so i'm going hong kong it could be macau but if it's macau that's all right it's only over the way so i'll go hong kong and i'm gonna painstakingly look for this hotel no not really i'm not gonna do that saint regis i could have a quick look i mean you know well we're not going to be there i'm not going to be there i'm going to go here without looking anymore [ __ ] it [ __ ] it right off look at that we are in china what wow this is quite fascinating so this lassa is that like the capital of tibet so to speak i think it might be it looks like it's the biggest city potentially in tibet but there we go are we really there really doesn't look like there's some regis hotel there was it even a hotel i don't know wait a minute we're not playing that absolutely awful map are we can't see a regis hotel it's a bit annoying that is a little bit annoying well that was frustrating on both sides of the uh of the reveal and it's a frustrating point so one two four five we've dropped big points there can we beat 19 785

i don't know that we we can but these two need to be so good so this is the goal now these last two rounds need to be almost perfect come on again we're still in the lap of the gods but i'm willing to work i'm willing to work to try and beat the record because that was poor that last round we didn't have much to go on salic photography and we've got a flag but it's one of those flags that could be a few flags i i'm thinking jordan at this point but we'll keep looking is that a flag there that huge that actually looks more like afghanistan if that's a flag let's keep looking round because we've already got two flags we might have more um it does look pretty poor [Music] i don't know and afghanistan as well uh here we go select photography come on give us a domain that is an afghanistan flag black red green where was i seeing white on that one i think that's the sky there that bit there it's the same color as this so we're in afghanistan afghanistan can be deceivingly kind of northern looking and if you look on the map that's because it is it does it is it borders tajikistan and uzbekistan even are we in kabul well we've got mountains over there so i'm going to look on the map select photography we've got mountains to the south as well so we know we're in afghanistan we know we're probably not down here in the deserty bits helmand province in kabul we do have mountains to the east and we do have mines to the south so that could correlate does correlate it there's quite a lot of different ranges in and around kabul are they big mines with snow on in the distance or am i just am i seeing things there i'm not sure they look like big mountains to the north east that could be those couldn't it they look bigger so actually i i would if anything i'd be looking in this area because we've got mountains to the south but not that big and then we've got big ones over there doesn't mean we're necessarily here but the road would correlate it is going at that kind of it is going at that direction that's good i mean imagine if we found imagine if we got this guys imagine sally photography i'm gonna have a little look because you never know you just never know please be on the map you've gone you've really gone to town with the shop front photography questionable but you've gone to town with the sign could do with an update actually but you've made an effort at some point a few years ago so please just put it on the internet put it on google so if if we are here i don't think his shop is on here just to get things into perspective it's so likely not to be it's it's it might not be kabul kabul is it's only 50 50 that it's kabul even we could be there you know i don't know we'll see i think it's fairly likely to be kabul but we'll see how close i get here goes oh [ __ ] me okay oh we've lost i i don't even know if we're still in it here we were 51 miles away good job i went to the eastern ends of kabul that's where we apparently were the road was even more of an extreme angle he's not on google so i was right about that yes get in but it's a hollow victory the mountains to the south were quite far and the mountains to the northeast were very big indeed you can see how tall they look i mean that is proper osama bin laden territory that is

yeah so moment of truth here a double whammy what's the next round okay that looks promising but we cut wait can we do it yeah of course we can do it i don't know why i keep thinking we've lost loads of points more points than we have so if we get a perfect score here of course and basically we need four thousand we need four we need four thousand one hundred something like that i won't work it out exactly right this says it qui buca 25 and um of course i'm wondering how many of you are beating me here and will beat me as always let me know in the comments at the end there's the flag so we have a flag i mean this is what we need but whether that's a country or an overseas territory of another country i'm not sure it could be either because as i said earlier i'm not 100 on all those little tiny nations i'm struggling to think what that that is we've got yellow number plates but they're kind of like european shaped but definitely not european we're in a tropical sort of place those cars are is that a toyota corolla and that might even be a toyota mr2 or some or mazda maybe so potentially um asian cars we've got a fairly big city up there that's interesting pretty big city and so this cui buca qui buca it sounds to me like a sort of australasian oceanic name like out here somewhere could would be on vanuatu something like that whatever it is it's gotta be it's gonna have a fairly big capital to it as you can see up there i mean those are some pretty big buildings the main question i've got is is qui buca the name of this city if it is then great we'll find it fairly quickly i would have thought but i don't think it is because i think i would have heard of it if it's this big and built up this is just my first hunch i'm looking at places like this you know um places that i don't know much about qui buca so i can look at languages so this sounds this looks french vanuatu is a rue cornwall rue edinburgh i think there's been some real serious mixing trading of uh land there i just don't think i think these islands that i'm looking at are too small what we've got over there is so built up see that could just be the name of the street it could be a really fancy apartment that you stay in what what does the 25 stand for you know number 25 qabuka quibuca road don't know i don't think we're in samoa i don't think it's this built up so where does that leave me um ah now this this is gonna be tough but i'm so determined to get this so we've got the caribbean but qui buca for a start doesn't really remind me of the caribbean where's the sun it's kind of in the south if anything but it's pretty damn westerly we can't really use that um let me have a look through some of these caribbean places lucia barbados some vincent let me have a little look martinique is just all going to be french there's no point dominica looks pretty english as well guadalupe monsieur is small anguir u.s virgin islands right that is one big place willemstad look at that kabuto boss kabuto boss kaya there's definitely like an old language that's still got an influence here seru it's a lot of apartments here mahay i'm liking the language it does seem to fit this might be totally wrong guys we you know i don't know all right let me search this place because it's big it's built up it takes a few boxes it's built up it's obviously the right um tropicalness it's in the southern hemis it's in the northern hemisphere just the flag i can't remember it's obviously owned by the netherlands so that would make sense that i wouldn't know the flag um and also what i thought was to see out here isn't it's kind of hilly so leave it with me let me let me check i'm just looking for qui buca i'm just looking for that word because it's got to be if this if my trailer thought is right it's got to be either a road or an apartment name look at these names though nikki bocco why nappa harry [ __ ] i'm gonna go for it man i'm gonna just really gamble here because while lots of things add up i really could be on the other side of the earth genuinely i don't know the flag for curacao i don't know the the license plates i don't remember guys i don't remember um there's certain things that add up which i've explained the only other thing is are we could we be somewhere in africa but i just don't think there'd be that much wealth up there look at that no way unfortunately for africa i don't think that's right so i'm just gonna go for it i literally just thought about rwanda you are kidding

who is up for some classic play along Geo guesser I know I am um I'm gonna take a punt on this map that I've just discovered it's like the geodetective map but apparently it's perfect um it's created by guiros he reckons 25k score is always possible but some rounds are harder than others meta knowledge is not required well that suits me and the compass is never wrong right we're going to play it with panning and zooming of course but no moving because that's how these maps are intended to play just before we start though folks I now have Instagram I didn't really want to get Instagram for quite some time but the reason I've ended up getting it is um purely to make links to find fellow adventurers content creators uh you know filmmakers musicians and sponsorship people uh businesses just so that I can Elevate the channel to the next level in terms of my Adventures so there'll be lots of snaps of classic moments from my Adventures on there it's mainly revolves around my real life stuff there's not going to be much Geo guesser stuff but I thought I'd let you guys know anyway just in case you wanted to follow me so the link will be in the description along with the instructions to play along with this video Let's see what this map is all about and let's see if I can get a perfect score that is what I'm aiming for here very much so now already here without even panning are we seeing a sort of pink Hue to these registration plates putting us in Belgium I don't know we've got a Tesla a Fiat a Mercedes a Volkswagen and a Volkswagen a Volkswagen Volkswagen Citron and a mini so I'd say pretty Belgian let's have a look over here liftgasoned something West Stark at Stell West yeah that sounds pretty oh there we go there's the be welcome loot sounds pretty Belgian so this could be like usted or I'll have to look on the map actually I can't remember Haven Master usted yeah usten so it's zebruga is the one I was trying to think of zebruga and usted the ports that lead into Belgium with these massive wide canals um so this one isn't too hard I mean I'm wondering whether this map is easier than the usual one but we can definitely get this used end yeah in the New Port because I I know these places because when I did cycle down the up the coast uh I should say I went through a lot of these places Japan  Dune was it and I remember getting to some big rivers that I couldn't cross but usten is much further up here it is so we should be around here no we thought we're up by the beach so we're further up so we should be there I would have thought what's this baldy doing see the Lifeguard oh no he's the toilet uh attendant very different jobs okay let's go in uh

Perfect Detective Map

Meant to be played in NO MOVING mode. All 1115 handpicked locations have clues, with a little skill and effort a 25k is always possible. Street signs are boring, so there aren't many. Meta is not required and compass should be right. If you need to report a bad location: bit.ly/3f6RUX9

yeah I'm happy with that cool five yards amazing so ah straight away I think I know where that building is I think it's in Malmo the Turning torso it's called oh there you go look so it's definitely the right building that I was thinking of the Turning torso I mean it's a pretty cool design but it it's one of those buildings it seems that they clad it in white and it kind of gets a bit grubby after a while there's a couple in Birmingham that aren't that old they're only like 10 15 years old and they already look quite tired looking but maybe it's kind of the the maybe it just needs a bit of a clean or maybe it's the imagery anyway so we're in Malmo I presume so this is another one that won't be hard for me I'm just trying to figure out if there's any other giveaway clues that say Malmo because that really would no I don't think there is that's good that means it's not like a totally easy map um and this shouldn't be too hard for me to find within Malmo because we should be able to see like the the shadow of it I think it's near the sea but it either way it should if it's not the the shape of it we should be able to see the writing um the the label for it see if we can actually see the C because I thought it was by the sea but it might not be it's very flat is it way over here no I had this idea ah there it is it is near the sea turning torso iconic twisted and sculptured Tower block so we should be there if I line the compass up yeah that is where we are that Road is closed why is that one closed I think they've made it into cycle paths have they who knows um but yeah that is us

four yards this time we're gonna go five four three two one that'll be some achievement oh my goodness we're up on a building this reminds me of the other map I used to play bird's eye bird's eye view this could be harder this look at the colors of these houses what are they huh I have no idea at the moment I need a challenge I need this to be a bit more challenging for me and I think this is oh look at that building we've got a ferris wheel insane buildings that one over there I've got an idea but it's nothing more than an absolute Punt and McDonald's down there so these buildings first of all at first I thought they look and they do look quite Norwegian or Icelandic or even sort of somewhat Slovakian you know Eastern European but this obviously isn't um I mean if you look at these buildings just don't think it's I don't think it's Eastern Europe just look at these and I think look how spread out they are is that something you would find in Eastern Europe like Warsaw or you know Kiev or something I don't think so and certainly not I mean this is obviously not somewhere like I might be wrong but I don't think this is somewhere like Kiev because it just goes out into this Barren land for me this looks like somewhere more like sugar bat is probably my is an option this is a fascinating building ah there is there is Cyrillic so that is Russian or Cyrillic language script and there is the giveaway guys there's a bloody flag it's um it's in Kazakhstan so I wasn't a million miles away but it will be well what is the capital these days is it Astana gotta be hasn't it they've changed the capital a few times but we've got water over there to the east doesn't really add up we should have a river the ishim river there's a river the water to the sorry we should have water to the West sorry if I said East which I can't really see but we should be able to get this there should be a sort of Valley in the Middle with not much on it that would be that bridge and then there'd be one big main road hmm unless that was the bridge Presidential Park just trying to size it all up guys and see if this actually is the place because at the moment I'm not sure I'm thinking not but I'd say we would be there is there is there a McDonald's here can't see one we're not on a building by the way I think we're just you know it's Drone footage and then that huge Palace there Sultan mosque but that just leads right out of town without bending around so look around a little bit a little bit more [Music] opening my ideas up to the idea that the compass is wrong now as well so like for example if we were in our starter us being on this side wait a minute yeah that's right the compass is completely wrong ah damn you um okay so yeah we're there that I think anyway yeah that will be the Triumph astani so we're probably about there there's the McDonald's well I should have I that I to be fair I should have um realize that as a possibility a lot earlier but part of that is on the map maker he did say that it was all a hundred percent of the compasses were correct and I've just noticed oh no I thought that said Astana on it so it is acetone of course we're in line with the edge of that building so I would say we're more like there um but this might not be totally accurate we're also in line with sort of that so I would say there uh let's try it two yards Ah that's so good and that isn't three yeah of course that is stupid of me not to explore that

possibility but there you go so yeah you can see the road heading out of town there this one that one completely straight I got there number four I need a glass of water let me know if you got that I'm sure many of you did but were there any of you that went down the same path as I did and just didn't consider that the compass could be wrong let me know did that Scupper your game because I'm still on a perfect score at the moment so that I believe is the Taiwan flag that is some bloke from Taiwan um Chinatown branch office ah just realized where we might be I think we might be in San Francisco well I mean that is a clue um doctor's son yats sin Memorial Hall of San Francisco so I did think it didn't have a very Taiwanese look to it um or Chinese for that matter so yeah we're in we're in Chinatown San Francisco which I've had on another map before but on this occasion yeah they've definitely put us here on purpose to throw the cat amongst the pigeons Taiwan flag is is in support of Taiwan who are imminently gonna be invaded by the ruthless evil China and it's accompanied by American flags um heartfelt things I mean yeah we don't need to look around too much I mean we could do a bit of old school you know Geo guess so let's take the piss out of people within reason within reason I used to go a bit too hard didn't I because I was a small Channel I can't really do that anymore but this guy's haircut is standing out at that point you just you just shave it off don't you that's the general consensus um International dragon and lion dance what is that because funnily enough when I was in San Francisco um when kovid was just actually in its early days February 2020 we did see a lion a Dragon Dance coming down the street as part of some Festival so maybe that's where they store the the thing um yeah we're ready I think I'll wait anyone else [Music] you got lucky so I just saw Sacramento so that will be the street won't it and they're about to head into a tunnel and it's heading south although as we've learned we can't fully rely on the compass clay Sacramento let's get in there it's up here somewhere Japan Town Civic Center it's up here here we go Chinatown Sacramento is there clay there's clay and there's Sacramento but we don't know which which street we're heading up north to south wise but if we find this tunnel then that should be it so we should be that's a tunnel isn't it yes Stockton tunnel can't see any other tunnels particularly so I would say that's right we can also try and find some establishments Central Chinese High School and the Memorial Hall there it is Central Chinese Chinese Central High School and can't see the Memorial Hall but that's good enough for me and we're right by this bus stop I mean we're in the middle of that I'd I'd be happy with that guess let's see if we can get one meter oh it's six it's bloody six and it's wrong

um but that is 5 000 points we are now on 20 000 points we're on for the Perfect Score we just need this final round to finish it all off who else is with me on that who else is perfect let me know right that feels like Island I don't know oh let's look at the sign Castle Town Foxdale Saint Mark's can't be island because we've got the yellow number plate at the back it's not driving on the right it's not that's not terrible driving it is parked up uh so this is this is probably Northern Ireland we got there um look at that old Renault Laguna kind of half half-heartedly souped up or is this Scotland and I don't think I don't know I honestly don't know Castle Town Foxdale Saint Mark's this might be tricky you know this actually might take a while and be quite tricky to to get I think we start in Northern Ireland because that was just what it felt like I thought I had it then Cookstown if we're in Northern Ireland it shouldn't take us too long because we're bi some pretty high ground as you can see over there trouble is it's quite yeah we can kind of see some High Ground here but these places castletown Saint Mark's foxtail could all be quite small an insignificant and hard to find on the map Castle town sounds like the biggest but I don't know okay I haven't found anything yet but I swear I do recognize castletown so I'm just gonna have a quick skip over to Scotland I'm gonna look sort of Castle downtown I mean just looking at the buildings here I mean we I'm not ruling out the north of England to be honest I mean they're not exactly Scottish or Irish I mean castletown is quite Northern Irish but yeah I'm not ruling anything out I mean it could literally be that we're appear somewhere or maybe even further south Yorkshire even Lincolnshire Kent no definitely not Kent um God but in that case we really have got a ridiculously potentially drawn out search on our hands something that I'll have to speed up hugely uh and possibly even just have a stab up just have a guess up um right wish me luck there is no point talking over any of this now I'm just gonna be searching on the map for hopefully a reasonable time because I've got lots of editing to do here we go [Music] can't be up here it's not Welsh enough there's no Welsh anywhere oh my God I think I've got it Castle town could it be that we are in the Isle of Man I'm not sure you know if we see a Saint Marks then yeah but it would make sense so castletown is that way so we would be up here Saint Mark's foxtail sweet some of you will have will have known from the word go where we were then and fair play to you um I only really know Douglas and peel and Ramsay but yeah many of you will know castletown I mean culturally it probably isn't that different to there's probably crossovers with with Ireland and they do have an ancient language on this island the Isle of Man called manx which I don't think is spoken very much but um is still spoken I think by some old fogies um a long way to continue so we're looking at Foxdale is down there some Marx's North doesn't really make sense no yes Marx is straight up there it's a bit odd could we be no awkward positionings they are I've got to say we're on a main road so some marks don't say the compass is wrong on this wait that's that's confused me no they're not in the they're not pointing in the directions I thought they were Castle town is down this main road foxtail is up there so yeah we're there probably I thought it was the other way around with some marks and foxtel uh yeah I think so is there some sort of Junction up there yeah possibly that bends around yeah um I'm fairly sure that that will be it just don't want to get this wrong no it's got to be isn't it it's got to be so marks is just over the way there and the road slightly at an angle yeah I'm doing it we actually on the junction yeah final round there it is two yards never

play-along geoguessr I thought you did let's do it let's play a new map brutalist architecture I like brutalist architecture I mean I wouldn't want our cities full of it but I think the best examples of those 70s or 60s concrete monstrosities should be preserved I think they're a very interesting portal into a very exciting phase of our history and I think if we bulldoze them all we'll regret it this map created by Geo Fred based on Damien gossett's website architecture website should include most of the best examples of brutalist architecture 893 in 66 countries now if any of you guys have not yet played along to one of these play-along videos it's really good fun and it's really easy check the instructions in the description below it's pretty damn simple and that is pretty much all there is to say perfect score is possible but very unlikely I would say on a map like this but who knows let's give it a go and find out no time limit no moving let's go wow look at that for a starter that is that is something isn't it I love it when they've been uh renovated you can tell that that one's been sort of scrubbed up and they've added new windows looks like it's in a prime position so they've possibly made it into Apartments let's look around and see where we actually might be I love the cut those it's star wars-esque isn't it and it's Swagger let's just build a huge block of concrete I guess I mean it was the Space Age wasn't it the 60s oh my God it's Chicago look at these is it the Sears Sears Tower or the Willis building or let me know is it the John Hancock building I get confused with them all uh more concrete over here less polished and yeah we're on the river it's just kind of dawned on me we're on the river we're on one of the waterways in Chicago um let's get in the map and see where this is according to the compass and the sun would correlate we are South of the center or where's the other really tall building the other the other black one the kind of looks similar maybe it's being obscured um yeah let's get into Chicago not Chicago as I sometimes call it um right so it's I would say judging by the layout of this that we're kind of down here somewhere see if we can find the outline of that concrete Beauty is it that one I don't think so there actually aren't a whole lot of bridges down here which is kind of odd so that would put us more like here yeah oh wow I think this is it but look at the shape of it and let me just check so it's that snakes run it's like a big S so those are the very abrupt ends the end of the the snake and then it'll be the same on the other side there look that is I don't think I could have asked for a better brutalist piece of architecture to start things off um I'm guessing I'll be absolutely fine with that yet 10 yards I think the threshold is going to be 100 yards at least maybe even 150. so perfect score we're still on four well done if you started off with a perfect score

um don't know if I'll keep that up because that was quite an easy round but let's move on oh my God look at this one seems like we're in Paris Bank popular Reeve De Paris so this could be quite hard to find but at least we know we're in the right City but that really is now that is a monstrosity that I love it though I absolutely love it like I know it looks ugly but it doesn't help really that all these trees are growing on it is that intentional I presume that's intentional because those will be people's balconies and I'm all for you know the growing of trees on buildings but that to me just looks like it's been engulfed by time and mother nature and there's a fine line isn't it between you know nice Greenery and weeds but this is I'm really in my element here I don't think I realized how much I that this kind of thing fascinated me but there you go let's try and get to the task so just trying to look for some Clues on here silly uh okay just scanning for Clues not gonna try and pronounce too much because my French pronunciation is not a great Rue something Perry now that's that could be useful rude Perry because I am going to try and get a perfect score but I won't completely break my back trying to do so Bank popular Reeve De Paris now I think that sag best clue don't think that's good so Reeve De Paris I mean Paris is technically wrong uh We're not gonna be able to read any of those okay this could take me a little while but we're just gonna get into Paris on the map and just have a little search because Reeve De Paris Reeve to Paris I'm just going to call it Paris okay because I'm English um it's it's entirely possible that we can we could stumble across this now I don't think we're gonna be in within that Central Ring Road partly because we haven't got like a 17th ah ah whatever it means a double r but I am going to search for a Reeve to Paris don't know what that would mean [Music] okay not finding a Reeve to Paddy and I'm also now starting to think that that might not be a place I mean it's entirely possible when you think about it Bank popular however thinking about it more I think that this I don't think that they'd build this too far outside of Paris it's the kind of thing you build relatively close to the city um but I'm not going to spend any more time searching for a place that may not exist uh so yeah I am going to just put the man down put the marker down we're not on Google Street View okay I am going to go about here but not before I check once more for a couple of Clues just I well any clue would be grand because you never know I might have missed something [Music] the only thing I can see that I didn't see before is this it looks like it's an ivry is that an area because if so that would be the best way to to fight it probably isn't it probably isn't but if it is so give me one minute while I look for that okay I give up that's my guess I is every so sane if I'd have just looked a bit longer but I thought I was going insane so I didn't bother looking any longer for that but E3 was the place I thought it might be because it looked kind of more of a local initiative rather than a private business so we're just outside the Ring Road we're obviously on the other side of the city to where I picked um and I don't think how this building looks massive it looks like it carries on all around here look which is incredible but I don't think Bank popular rhyth De Paris is probably a chain so that was I was probably barking up the wrong tree there but you know what 4908 ain't too bad some of you guys however will be on a perfect score because some of you will have heard of every or found
