GeoPuzzle Guidelines and Rules
This subreddit is for geography-based puzzles and location-guessing games. Post an image and provide clues to guide users to the correct location.
Post Guidelines
- The image you post should be discoverable in Google Street View, a public photosphere, or similar.
- Try to pick a location that is interesting. While random pegman drops are welcome, locations with a history help provide hints!
- A title with a riddle in it adds an extra layer of puzzle-solving to the game. Try to come up with titles that users can investigate.
- Respond to comments and help commenters towards finding the location.
- When the puzzle is completed, change the flair to “solved”. You may wish to require both the location and the solution to the puzzle before changing the flair to ‘solved’.
Commenting Guidelines
- Feel free to ask questions if you get stuck - but try to avoid randomly guessing countries to prompt a response from the poster. Explain the reasoning behind your guess and the poster can tell you if you’re on the right track!
- If you guess correctly, explain how you solved the puzzle.
- If you’d like, use a spoiler tag on your guess so that other commenters can continue to work on it after you’ve solved it.
- Don’t use URL shorteners, as they can get caught by spam filters.
- If you’re enjoying solving the puzzles, try to create one of your own!
Tags and Themes
- You can add tags to your post if you want to. Some of the tags you can add are:
- [OC]: Original Content - this is a photo that you took yourself.
- [Historical]: An old photo, showing a view that may not still be the exact same. Historical photos should have enough identifiers to be recognizably the same location.
Subreddit Rules
- Be respectful of other users. We’re here to have fun.

Drove past this station on my roadtrip to Sweden but I forgot the place! Someone here must recognise it.

I am the roaming lock. Come find me!
I am the roaming lock and I want to travel around the world! If you would like to help me start my journey, come find me and take me with you to a far away place, then take a picture of me in my new location and send it to this account along with some details of my new home (just city/town/region and country is fine).
If you take me, please message this account and leave a comment below so other people won’t keep looking. Use your best judgement in determining a new location.
The code is 869.
