The most useful clue in Worldle is the distance: a wrong guess tells you how far away the answer is, and good players learn to read that number like a map. Pin Drop turns the same skill around. Instead of guessing a country from its shape and reading the distance afterwards, you are told a place, a city, a lake, a ruin, and asked to mark it on a world map with no names on it. The distance is your score.
There are five places a day, identical for every player, rising from something famous to something tricky. After each pin you see the error in kilometres, and once the day has enough players, everyone's guesses and their average point. Being closer than the crowd is a small daily win, much like solving the Worldle in two.
It differs in obvious ways: no silhouette, no arrow, no six-try budget, just one pin per place and a clock of 20 to 25 seconds. It is free on Gamefinity, on a phone or a computer, and resets at midnight Eastern Time rather than your local midnight.
How to play Pin Drop
- Read the destination and its country on the board.
- Place your pin with a tap or a click, then drag and zoom to adjust it.
- Lock it in with DROP PIN before the timer ends.
- Read your error in kilometres and compare with the crowd's average pin.
- Do all five, then check your boarding pass for the day's total.
Pin Drop tips
- Think like Worldle's arrow. Before you tap, decide which side of the country the place is on.
- Water is your grid. Use coasts, rivers and big lakes as reference points.
- Zoom near the poles. The map stretches the far north and south, so pins there are often closer than they look.
- Take care on the first place; a pin within 25 km scores the full 1,000.
