How to play OdysseyGuessr — the free Mario Odyssey guessing game

July 9, 2026 · 5 min read

OdysseyGuessr is a free, fan-made guessing game inspired by GeoGuessr — but instead of Google Street View you're dropped into a screenshot from Super Mario Odyssey. Your job: figure out which kingdom the picture was taken in and pin the exact spot on the map. The closer your pin, the more points you score.

The basic loop

  1. You see a screenshot from Super Mario Odyssey (Cap, Cascade, Sand, Wooded, Lake, Cloud, Lost, Metro, Snow, Seaside, Luncheon, Ruined, Bowser's, Moon, Mushroom, Dark or Darker Side).
  2. You open the kingdom map, pick the kingdom, and drop a pin where you think the shot was taken.
  3. You submit your guess. The game reveals the true location and awards points based on distance and kingdom accuracy.
  4. Repeat for the number of rounds you selected. Final score at the end — try to beat it next run.

How scoring works

Every round is worth up to 5000 points. Half of that comes from picking the correct kingdom; the other half is a smooth distance falloff — the closer your pin, the more of those 2500 you keep. A perfect pin in the right kingdom = maximum score. A right kingdom but a pin on the wrong end of the map still nets a decent chunk. Wrong kingdom is expensive.

The fastest way to get good

  • Learn the skyboxes first — Metro's skyline, Bubblainian sunset, Mount Volbono's magma glow. Skyboxes usually give away the kingdom in under a second.
  • Memorize hub silhouettes: New Donk City Hall, Tostarena's Inverted Pyramid, Bowser's Castle, Peach's Castle on the Moon. These are anchors you can pin from anywhere in the kingdom.
  • Play with the timer off while you learn — pan around, read signage, look at background enemies. Then turn the timer on to lock in what you've learned.
  • Play a Quick Match. Nothing accelerates learning like losing HP to someone who spotted the Talkatoo statue before you did.
