Find your way through Buenos Aires
mapsmaze is a free map puzzle game on the real streets of Buenos Aires. Study the map for a few seconds, then find your way to the address from memory, junction by junction, like a maze made of a real city.
Where you play
Letters in Buenos Aires start in the city centre, around the Obelisco and Avenida 9 de Julio, on the city's real street map from OpenStreetMap.
Buenos Aires's streets
The centre of Buenos Aires is a grid of square blocks, crossed by Avenida 9 de Julio, one of the widest avenues in the world, and by diagonal avenues heading out from the Plaza de Mayo. The diagonals are the shortcuts, if you remember where they go.
How a round goes
- Study the map. You see the streets of Buenos Aires, where you start and where the letter goes, for a few seconds.
- Walk it from memory. The map goes away and you're in the street, at street level. Choose a street at each junction and run to the next one.
- Deliver the letter. Points for a direct route and a quick one; every peek back at the map costs 50.

New players pick 3 cities to start with, so you can choose Buenos Aires straight away. Delivering letters earns stamps, which open more cities. The daily letter, the same for everyone, is set in one of the game's cities, and it could be this one.
