About Ethnoguessr

EthnoGuessr is an interactive, browser-based quiz that offers a fresh perspective on understanding global human diversity. The core gameplay revolves around guessing the geographical origin of a person based on an averaged composite face. These computer-generated images represent the typical features of a specific ethnic or population group. Each round presents a new composite face, and players must accurately place a pin on the world map where they believe that person's ethnic origin lies. The more accurately you predict, the more points you receive! A full session consists of 10 rounds, culminating in a final score that encourages friendly competition and continuous learning.

How to Play EthnoGuessr

View the Face: Each round begins with a carefully computer-generated image that represents the average appearance of a particular ethnic group. Take your time to study the facial features.
Using the interactive world map tool, click on the country or region you believe the person's ethnic origin is located in.
Score Based on Accuracy: After you make your guess, the game reveals the correct location. Your score for that round is directly proportional to how close your guess was to the actual origin.
