Photo location guessing game in Go
Conclusions
Schnitzle is a lot of fun; try it out! Sometimes it's surprisingly difficult to determine the compass direction in your head in order to even walk from one part of town to another, as depicted in the photos. I was often surprised by the results, even for locations that I thought I was very familiar with. The game offers hours of entertainment for the whole family when you trawl long-forgotten photos from years gone by from the depths of a massive image collection.
