Is Earth Games free?
Yes. Exploring, driving, flying, chat and voting are free. It runs in your browser, and you can play as a guest without an account.
Do I need to download or install anything?
No. Earth Games runs in Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari. There is no launcher and no app store. The world streams in as you move, so it doesn’t fill your disk.
Can I play on a phone or tablet?
Yes. It has touch controls for walking, driving and flying in the browser on iPhone, iPad and Android.
What does 1:1 mean?
Every road, building, river and hill is where it is in real life, at real size. A mile in the world is a mile on the map.
Where does the map come from?
From open data: OpenStreetMap for roads and water, Overture Maps for buildings, ESA WorldCover for land cover, and USGS and Copernicus elevation for terrain. See the full attribution.
Is my town in it?
Check the places you can explore now. If yours isn’t there, nominate it and vote: the most-voted towns are built first.
How do new towns get built?
Anyone can vote once a day for any town or city on Earth. Places with votes are built before the map grows on its own, most-voted first. Signed-in votes count for more.
What can I do in the world?
Walk real streets, drive cars, trucks and motorcycles, fly helicopters and airplanes, find landmarks, and meet other players. Games run on top of the world, and you open them from your in-game phone.
Who decides which games get made?
Players do. Anyone with an account can suggest a game idea, and everyone can give ideas a thumbs up or down on the Vote & Expand page.
How do I play with friends?
Everyone shares one world. Open your phone in the game (P or Esc) and tap “Meet here” to copy a link to your exact spot. Anyone who opens it appears next to you.
Do I need an account?
No. An account saves your spot, your garage and your records, and makes your votes count for more.
