It's a geography game kind of like a reverse Geoguessr- given a map of a city (e.g. your hometown), you have six tries to find a mystery location on a map, like a restaurant, a museum, or a record store.
Just as a caution, the UI is a little snarky. Adds some character.
- I suggest downloading anaconda! (For Pyrosm, installing with pip seems to be a bit tricky. You can try though and let me know if it works.)
- If using Conda, make sure your interpreter is set to
Python 3.9.13 ('base')
. You may have to uninstall regular ol' Python. - Make sure that you have
numpy
,pandas
,glob
,tqdm

- Run
mainApp.py
to start the app! - Before pressing "Play Game", click on "Load Data" and load a .csv file of any city you want. I used San Francisco, and I recommend that you do too. The app may freeze for a few minutes while it's loading the .csv's-- look at the Python console to see how much time the computer needs to load the dataset.
- I highly recommend loading a city because I had insufficient time to figure out how to load an entire country. Processing a gigantic csv file will probably make your computer explode.
- Finally, after loading your data, you can play the game!
