Skyrim GeoGuessr
Wake up somewhere in Skyrim, from the Reach to the Rift. Where are you, Dragonborn?
TESGuessr's Skyrim game is over 59,000 panoramas of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim: every road and hold, the streets of the five walled cities, and the tundra, pine forests, glaciers, hot springs, marshes and mountain passes between them, with Nordic barrows, Dwemer ruins and dragon lairs along the way. Look around, walk the roads, and pin the map.

How to play
Each game is five rounds. You wake up at a place in the game's world: look around, and with Moving on, follow the arrows down roads, through towns and over the hills. When you think you know where you are, drop a pin on the map. The closer the pin, the more points: up to 5,000 a round, 25,000 a game.
Make it harder with the settings: No move keeps you where you land, NMPZ (no moving, panning or zooming) gives you one fixed view, a timer of one to three minutes hurries you, and the hard difficulty (Nerevarine in Morrowind, Hero of Kvatch in Oblivion, Dragonborn in Skyrim) starts you anywhere at all, deep wilderness included, where the easy one (N'wah, Beggar or Milk-drinker) starts you on a road, in a town or at a landmark.

Questions
- Is it Skyrim Special Edition?
- The places are Skyrim Special Edition's world, the same map whichever edition you played: the roads, holds, cities and barrows are where you know them from.
- Are Solstheim and the Soul Cairn in it?
- Yes: Dragonborn's Solstheim (over 3,000 places) and Dawnguard's Soul Cairn (over 1,000), each a map of its own.
- What is Bruma doing in a Skyrim game?
- Beyond Skyrim: Bruma is a fan-made expansion that brings Bruma and Cyrodiil's Jerall Mountains to Skyrim. TESGuessr has over 2,000 places there, as a map of its own. If you know Bruma from Oblivion, see how well that holds up.
- Do I need Skyrim installed?
- No. It plays in the browser; the panoramas were drawn from the game's own data.
- Are there people in the panoramas?
- Yes: the townsfolk stand where they would at noon in the game, and the wilds have their creatures.
- Is there a Skyrim daily challenge?
- Yes: Skyrim's ranked daily, five places a day, the same for everyone, one go, with a leaderboard. New at midnight UTC.
