How to play Geo-Masters

Each slot in a pack has its own odds. The first three mostly give Common cards; the last one is always at least Rare and may hide a Legendary.

On average, a pack contains 2.4 Common, 1.35 Uncommon, 1 Rare, 0.2 Super rare, 0.05 Ultra rare, 0.01 Legendary.

The guarantee

No endless bad luck: after 10 packs without a Super rare, the next one is sure to contain one. After 60 packs without an Ultra rare, the next one guarantees one.

Recharge

A free pack arrives every 10 minutes, up to 4 in reserve. Once the reserve is full, the timer stops: come back and open them to restart it. On top of that, you get 1 login pack per day.

Three packs to choose from

• Country pack: every town in the country of your hometown.
• International pack: towns from every open country, each with the same chance within its tier.
• Theme pack: one theme per week in your country (Coast, Mountains, Heritage, Seats).

Same odds and same guarantee everywhere. A duplicate is never wasted: it counts as an extra copy in your Collection.

Pick a country, a region, then an area (department, province, district or county): each choice shows how many cards you own out of the total. "See on the map" opens the country map, colored in by your cards.

• Search for a town by name, and sort by rarity, population or name.
• Turn on "Missing" to see, grayed out, the cards you are missing in the areas you have started.
• Star your best cards as favorites: the first ones make up the showcase on your profile.
• Your Hometown card, the card of your hometown, carries your username on the back and can never be traded.

Recycle duplicates from your Collection to earn Shards, then craft a missing card from its page. Your last copy of a card and your Hometown card are never recycled.

Add friends by username or with your invite link (up to 200 friends). To propose a trade, pick the cards you give from yours and the cards you ask for from theirs, up to 5 on each side, and how long the offer lasts (1 to 12 hours).

• The cards you offer are held until your friend replies.
• Your friend can accept, decline or make a counteroffer.
• You need a verified email address, and at most 10 trades can be in progress.
• Hometown cards cannot be traded. A warning flags very unbalanced trades.

List one or more cards for sale: starting price, optional buy-now price, and a duration of 12, 24, or 48 hours. Listing costs 5 GeoCoins per card.

• Your GeoCoins are held as soon as you bid, and returned right away if someone bids higher. Each bid must beat the previous one by at least 5%.
• When time runs out, the highest bid wins. A 5% commission is taken on each sale.
• No conversion to real money. Your Hometown card cannot be sold.

Build a deck of 5 cards (each card costs points based on its tier, from 1 for a C card to 6 for an L card). Practice against a bot or challenge a friend.

• A duel lasts 5 rounds. Each round, both players play a card, then a question is asked about the two cards: which is more populous, farther north, higher… You have 10 seconds to answer.
• Right answer: your card attacks the opposing HP reserve with its ATK, reduced by the opposing DEF. Answer in under 3 seconds for +20%.
• Biome cycle: Mountain › Plain › Forest › River › Coast › Mountain. With the advantage, your card hits +20% harder. Lake counts as Coast; Urban is neutral but boosts the other urban cards in the deck.

The stat battle

Quick and question-free: over 3 rounds, a stat is drawn (ATK, population, area, elevation…). Play the card in your hand that is strongest on that stat: the highest value wins the round.

A new mystery town every day at midnight. Your only starting point: its outline. Find it in 6 guesses or fewer.

• After each wrong guess, you see the distance to the mystery town, an arrow pointing toward it, and whether it is more or less populous.
• Find it every day to grow your streak.
• Share your grid: colored squares based on distance, without giving the answer away.

Conquer the regions one by one. The opposing deck is led by the regional capital, backed by towns from the region, with the quiz duel rules.

First win in a region: you earn an Ultra rare (UR) card from that region. You can replay a region you have already conquered.

Every pack you open and every new card earns you XP, which raises your level. The game has 49 achievements (collecting, exploring, duels, trades…): claim them to earn GeoCoins and XP.

You earn GeoCoins from achievements and on your first login each day (+20). They are spent at the Market. Shards come from recycling and are used for crafting.

An optional subscription will speed up packs: one pack every 3 minutes instead of 10, 2 packs per recharge, a reserve of 6, a daily Pro pack of 15 cards, more stat battles and the Market view. The cards stay the same for everyone.
