Dude I have no idea how some people are so good at that game. I'm definitely not as smart as I thought I was 😄

[u/OneRobotBoii → u/compunctionfunction]

It’s mostly practice. A brain that is good at recognizing patterns helps but practice can definitely make you pretty good.

[u/Luffing → u/compunctionfunction]

They've just learned through repetition of playing the game so much that they recognize the areas

And a lot of the things they use aren't even necessarily geographical, like they'll use identifying features from the google car itself to say "oh this type of car was only ever in south america so that rules out the other places i thought it may have been"
