Name the place. Nail the year.
Every scene is thick with evidence — the clothes, the light, the story the narrator tells. Commit to your answer, or take another clue and trade away a few points.
A daily history challenge
Where — and when — are you?
Once a day, everyone in the world slips into the same moment in history — a living scene with spoken narration. Work out where on Earth you are, and what year it is.
1
Initiate a timeslip
Photograph something with a connection to the past, then shake your phone — gently will do — to slip into today’s challenge.
2
Guess where — and when
Pin down the place and the year. Three clues are there if you need them, but each one costs points.
3
Uncover the story
Then dig into the day itself — a vivid read on why it mattered, a timeline around it, and documentaries and podcasts to go further.
Inside the game
Explore the moment
After you guess, five quick questions open the scene up. Answer them well to claw back points — and walk away actually knowing the history.
See where it happened
Every timeslip is anchored to a real place on Earth. When the round ends, drop onto the exact spot on a satellite map and see how it looks today.
Get the whole story
A short, vivid read on why the moment mattered, and a timeline setting the day among the events that led to it and the ones that followed. Then keep going — documentaries to watch, podcasts to listen to, and the sources they all came from.
Play it together
Start a group with one shareable code and race friends, family, or workmates up the daily leaderboard — everyone slips into the same moment, every day.
Your history, on record
Streaks, win rate, best scores, and every day you’ve played — your whole run through the past, kept in one place.
Today’s moment is waiting
A new scene from history lands every day, free to play — slip in and see if you can place it. A membership opens the rest: the full story behind each day, the documentaries and podcasts it points you to, and the back catalogue of everything you’ve missed.
