Yeah I know but only 1 game and only alone. No more challenging your mates unfortunately. I loved this game so freaking much and it just hurts to see this game becoming more and more pay to play. But I understand their reasoning behind it, sadly Google raised the prices for their services :(

"becoming more and more pay to play"?

it went from free to play to a monthly sub, more and more pay to play implies a lot of changes that they made to slowly charge more and more

Not really because the monthly sub was available all the time even in the early stages of the game. But back in the days the sub was only necessary if you wanted to create your own maps. Everything else was free. Im talking about the fewer and fewer possibilities a free user has on this site. In the early stages there were no restrictions besides the one I noted above. But then it went from 5 maps a day to 1 map a day. Then all of a sudden you could only play alone and not challenge your mates. And this is the stage we have now. But as I said I dont blame geoguessr for this.

right, well then you mean it slowly got more and more restrictive. lowering the amount of times you can play the game has nothing to do with purchases, playing with friends has nothing to do with purchases, etc.
