Out of curiosity, I wonder why the game chose Apple Maps. I would have expected OpenStreetMap. Interesting choice.

Just played 5 rounds. I wanted to see my score as ranked against others, but u didn't do that. That's like me saying here is 800 points for your post. There is no context for the score.

The context is how close you were to the correct answer, not to your peers.

Some photos are off by at least 100 meters and it is surprising how easy a photo can be off a year so easily. I believe it happens because the easy timestamp is at the time of development, means you can easily be two years off. Also surprising how easy it is to get exact date and time of day on some of the photos.
