Apparently you can get photos posted on Google as well as Streetview. If you do, you are banjaxed!

The missus got somewhere outside Banbridge last night, she thought it was somewhere around Newtownhamilton.

Haven't seen any others in Ireland.

I got a class one in Dawson City, Yukon. Main street looked like something from the Wild West (all wooden structures but there was a casino and everything was called "Gold Rush......."

I found a road near Clonmel. Clicked in Waterford, which helped my score of 13000 (approx). Great fun.

First city was in Japan. Helps that I lived in the country and recognise specific car types that are not sold outside the country, but it doesn't help that every fekkin Japanese city looks identical (except the cultural centres, that is). Fourth clue was Norseman in WA which I have driven few a few times.

Addicted already.

Haha, just got the Sandfire Roadhouse between Port Hedland and Broome. I have stopped there a million times.

Played this on my iPad.

First game and I got 8,912 points. I'm away to improve on that.

Everywhere I get looms the same - some deserted dusty road. When I choose Australia it is N. Mexico, when I choose southern US it is S. Africa!

On my first go I got a street in Madeira. Handy - I was on holiday there a few years ago.

Ok, after a string of middle-of-nowheres, I yielded to temptation and resorted to Google. Score-20,913. A slighly different game when you can be a sleuth rather than an educated guesser.
