Pindela
The real-world guessing game

Find the exact spot.

Snap a photo of a real place and post it as a challenge — hidden inside a ~2.25 km² area. Other players head out on foot and race to stand on the exact spot and prove it with their GPS. Like GeoGuessr, but in the real world.

How it works

Three steps to play

Post your own spots, hunt down everyone else's. It all happens on your feet, in the real world.

1

Snap a spot

Photograph an interesting, public place around you — a doorway, a mural, a quiet corner. Blur any faces or plates before you post.

2

Post a challenge

Your photo goes live hidden inside a ~2.25 km² block. Players see the area, never the exact pin. Pick Mystery (hidden) or Preview (peek for half points).

3

Go find it

Head out, stand on the exact spot, and send your guess. Get within the win zone and you score — the first five solvers earn the most points.

Why Pindela

A game that gets you outside

Built around real places, real movement, and a little friendly competition.

Mystery or Preview

Play blind for full points, or preview the photo first and solve it for half. Two ways to take on every spot.

Exact-spot GPS

No vague pins. A guess only counts inside a tight win zone around the real spot, with a little leeway for GPS.

Points & leaderboards

The first five solvers split 100 / 50 / 30 / 15 / 5 points. Climb the board over the season and all-time.

Safety first

Public, accessible places only. Faces and plates must be blurred. Your precise location is never shown to other players.

Block-based map

The city is a grid of ~2.25 km² blocks. See how many challenges wait in each, and what's live near you right now.

Free, no ads

Pindela is free during the alpha with no ads and no in-app purchases. Just the game.

Trust & safety

Real people, real places — kept safe

Pindela sends players to real locations, so safety isn't optional. It's built into every post and every hunt.

Privacy by design

Faces and licence plates must be blurred before posting. Your precise location is never shared with other players.

Public places only

No private property, trespassing, or unsafe spots. Posts are limited to public, accessible locations.

Moderation & reporting

Anything can be reported in a tap. Bad content is removed, points reversed, and repeat offenders are locked out.

Play smart out there

Stay aware of your surroundings and never put yourself at risk to reach a spot. 16+ only.

Questions

Frequently asked

Yes. During the alpha, Pindela is completely free — no ads, no subscriptions, and no in-app purchases.

We're starting with a closed alpha in Latvia (Rīga first), then expanding. Join the alpha below and we'll let you know when it opens up near you.

Location is used to show challenges near you and to check your guesses on the spot. Your precise position is never shown to other players — they only ever see the block-level area.

Pindela is a mobile app for iOS and Android. Both are coming soon — get in touch for the alpha to get early access.

Pindela is built by Woodrock Solutions, a small independent studio. Questions or ideas? Reach out below.
