What is Range Ring?
Range Ring is a free daily geography game. Every day at midnight UTC, everyone in the world gets the same ten rings: a circle drawn around a mystery point on an unlabeled map, and four city names. Exactly one of those cities sits inside the ring — tap it before the clock runs out, and all four true distances land on the map instantly.
The trap is that the three wrong answers are never random: they're always close — outside the ring but within twice its radius. To win consistently you need a feel for where cities really sit, not just which country they're in. A 250 km ring in central Europe plays completely differently from a 1,500 km ring over the Pacific.
How points work
Each of the 10 rings is worth 100 points — a perfect day is 1000.
- 🟩 Right city — 100 points, no partial credit needed
- 🟥 Wrong city — 0 points, but you see all four distances anyway
All distances are great-circle ("as the crow flies") — the shortest path over the surface of the Earth, measured from the ring's center to each city.
The rings use the same distance math behind MapGO's Point to Point tool, which measures the great-circle distance between any two points on Earth. Sign in free to save your score, build a streak, and appear on the daily and all-time leaderboards.
