A country, told by a person.

Originle is a daily geography game with a real guest. Watch up to eight video clues, then use your three guesses to name the country they represent. Later clues offer more help and reduce the points available.

Focus on the guest’s roots and cultural details. Where they live now, or the accent they speak with, can point somewhere else. A new puzzle arrives at midnight in New York, including daylight-saving changes.

This is an independent answer guide. Play Originle and watch the guest videos at originle.io.
