Hi Product Hunt 👋 I'm Fred, and I built GeoDay.
I love daily puzzles, but I wanted one that actually teaches you something about the world. So instead of one guess, you get a hint ladder:
🗺️ Start with just the outline of a country
❌ Every miss shows how far away you are and in which direction
🔓 …and unlocks the next hint: neighbours → continent, population & area → flag → capital → letter pattern
Everyone gets the same 6 countries each day. Fewer hints = more points (max 36). There's a streak, stats, a spoiler-free share grid and a practice mode by continent. And a Give up button, so nobody gets stuck.
It's free, with no ads and no account. Your stats stay in your own browser. English and Swedish. Map data from Natural Earth, capitals/area/flags from mledoze/countries.
Two questions I'd love your help with:
1. Is 6 countries a day the right length?
2. Does the hint order feel fair, or does a hint come too early or too late?
Drop your score below. I'm curious how far people get!
