History games for students
A history game students can reason through.
EraGuessr works as a short, visual history activity: students inspect a scene, make a map guess, estimate the date, and review the explanation.
Visual reasoning
Players infer from what they see instead of only recalling names and dates.
Short feedback loop
Each round reveals the correct location, date, score, and a compact historical explanation.
Low setup
The MVP plays in a browser with no player accounts required for quick practice.

Questions people ask
Is EraGuessr made only for classrooms?
No. It is a public browser game, but the format is useful for students because each round produces a discussion-friendly reveal.
Does it show answers before the guess?
No. The game page hides correct locations and dates until the player submits a guess.
Can incorrect or confusing scenes be reported?
Yes. The feedback form stores content reports in the admin inbox so scenes can be reviewed.
