About EthnoGuessr
Guess the Origins of the World’s Faces
EthnoGuessr is a geography and anthropology game built around one simple question: Can you recognize where a face comes from? Using real anthropological averages, the game shows you composite images of men and women from different ethnic groups. Your job is to place their origin on the world map. The closer you drop your pin to the correct region, the more points you score.

Every round ends with the answer revealed - complete with the ethnic group’s name and a short background note. It turns each guess into a small lesson in history, migration, and identity. The game blends challenge with education, letting you sharpen your eye while also expanding your knowledge.
