Find your way through San Francisco
mapsmaze is a free map puzzle game on the real streets of San Francisco. 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 San Francisco start in Union Square and downtown, on the city's real street map from OpenStreetMap.
San Francisco's streets
Downtown San Francisco is two grids that don't line up, meeting along Market Street at an angle. Cross Market and the street pattern turns, so keep track of which side of it you're on.
How a round goes
- Study the map. You see the streets of San Francisco, 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.
Play in San Francisco In your browser, on a phone or a computer. No download, no sign-up needed.
New players pick 3 cities to start with, so you can choose San Francisco 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.
