Type 'easy' or 'hard' to begin the quiz. Easy is a 5-degree grid, hard is a 2.5-degree grid. Then, try to name the LARGEST city in each grid square which fits the category label for each square. To name a city, you must first click on the grid square to make it have a GREEN border. Then, type in the city answer for that square followed by a '.' (a period). You are given a score from 0 to 100 based on your answer's population compared to the largest city accepted in that square (100 being you named the largest city).
LETTER: means the city starts with that letter.
NUMBER RANGE: (such as 2-5, 10+) means the city contains that many letters (excluding spaces and special characters).
POPULATION RANGE: (such as 50-100K) means the city has that range for its population.
2+ WORDS means the city name has 2 or more words (words denoted by a space or hyphen).
AK and HI are NOT included in this quiz as they often have grid squares with only one answer for this quiz.
At the end of the quiz the largest population missed answer will show in each unanswered square, and for those answered the largest city will be listed if you didn't answer it.
Quiz Takers 
Updated this with brand new images – also there are 3 different images per city now (you will only get a city one time during the quiz though) and some new cities have been added.
Some strange things going on with the quiz the past couple of days.
1) Quiz now stops any time you run out of time on a photo without a correct answer. It doesn’t continue for the full 10 minutes.
2) Getting cities multiple times in the quiz (they should only be shown once per quiz). I got Houston a couple of times on a single quiz this weekend, and I actually got San Jose twice in a row in my latest round.
Fixing these now 🙂
Hi @darin It keeps reverting back to the bad rules. Can you take a look again?
Should be good now
@Darin, Hoping it’s time to update this quiz!! I’ve both memorized a lot of the photos over the years plus some of the skylines have changed considerably since the photos!
I’m sort of a skyline nerd and knew all but one of them, which wasn’t even a skyline… literally just a suburban parking lot studded town in the desert lol… probably a suburb of Phoenix or something.
Some of these skyline photos are taken at quite horrific angles. Leaving out iconic buildings and almost having a generic quality to them. I’ve never seen a photo of the SF skyline without the Salesforce building or the Transamerica building or the Bay Bridge or the Golden Gate. Sheesh.
Would it be possible for it to show what the city was if we missed it? Like, if I am typing in answers and it’s not accepting the answers and time runs out before I put in the correct answer, could it be made to show what the city I missed was? Hope that made sense.
others to add – Madison, Columbia SC, Mobile, Grand Rapids, Sioux Falls, Worcester, Richmond?
I’ve traveled to many cities in this country — this quiz is devilishly difficult and I respect the hell out of that.
Should add Des Moines to this. Has an amazing skyline and better than a decent amount of the cities used in this quiz. Also would be hard to get right if not from the midwest.
I got Des Moines
