Ethnoguessr is a fun little game where you look at pictures of people and try to guess where they’re from based on their appearance, clothing, or background. It’s kind of like GeoGuessr, but instead of guessing places, you’re guessing cultures. It makes you think a bit and helps you learn more about how diverse the world is — and it’s weirdly addictive once you start.
You’ll see a photo, usually of a person, and you just pick the cultural or ethnic background you think fits best from a few options. Click your choice, see if you were right, and then move on to the next one. It's easy to use; simply tap to get started.
You notice small things you’d normally overlook, like a type of earring or fabric
It’s a cool way to learn about different cultures without feeling like school
It's simple to understand; you don't have to be an expert in geography.
Don’t rush. Look closely at everything in the photo — clothes, scenery, hairstyle, accessories — even tiny details can give you a hint. You will get more adept at identifying patterns the more you play.
If you’re into guessing games, give Wordle a try. It’s a daily word challenge that only takes a couple of minutes but gets you thinking.
