Editor takes
A neat little daily time-killer — I can jump in, guess, and get on with my day.
Promising daily format, but with so little explanation I can't yet tell if the guessing mechanics are fair or just arbitrary.
A pleasingly geographic daily puzzle, though I'd love it to lean more into maps and less into text links.
The daily guessing hook is catchy enough, but I'm hoping the 'big' answers have more range than a one-hit wonder.
How to play How Big
Each day, a new subject is presented with the prompt “How big?” Players make a rough size estimate, then can check the provided Wikipedia page and “how to get there” info to compare. The game moves on to a new entry with a “Next” button.
Tips & strategy
- Compare the place to a familiar city, country, or landmark to get a rough scale.
- Use the Wikipedia link to look up geographic details before locking in your estimate.
- Focus on order of magnitude rather than an exact number; the game seems designed around being roughly right.
- Keep the local measurement unit in mind if the page uses kilometers, miles, or other regional units.
- If a place is hard to judge, think about how long it would take to travel across it, using the travel hints as a clue.
