Headline

What is Headline?

Headline is a daily puzzle from From The Think that blends news awareness with world geography. Each day, you are given a headline and must identify the specific place that is tied to it or that has been left out. It's a straightforward test of connecting current events to locations on the map.

How to play Headline

You are presented with a single headline. Your goal is to guess the geographic location—such as a city, country, or region—that the story is about or that is missing from the text. Type your guess and submit it to see if you've pinpointed the correct place.

Tips & strategy

• Scan the headline for specific nouns—landmarks, ethnic groups, or well-known events often point directly to a location.
• Think about recent major news cycles; the puzzle often draws from current or recent headlines.
• If you can't pinpoint the exact city, consider the broader country or region first to narrow your options.
• Pay attention to the tone of the headline—conflicts, elections, and festivals all hint at different types of places.
• Don't overthink it; the answer is usually a well-known place that fits the context of the story.
