Chronophoto

Chronophoto shows you a real photograph and asks one question: what year was it taken? The Daily has five photos, the same for everyone. There's no map to pin, only the year.

How to play

  1. 01

    Look at the photo

    Each round shows a real photograph from 1900 to today. Fashion, cars, technology and the photo itself are all clues.

  2. 02

    Pick the year

    Slide or type the year you think it was taken, then submit.

  3. 03

    Score for getting close

    The closer your guess, the more points: up to 1,000 per photo.

  4. 04

    Five photos a day

    A perfect Daily scores 5,000. A new one starts at midnight your time.

Good to know

  • How scoring works. The exact year scores 1,000, and points fall away quickly: 25 or more years off scores nothing.
  • More modes. Unlimited lets you play as many five-photo games as you like, and in Party everyone with the same passcode gets the same five photos.
  • Free. Play in any browser, or on the Chronophoto app for iPhone.
