A quick look at the 664 villages you can be asked to find on the map, before you play.
GuessTheDot is a free geography guessing game: you get a place name and a map full of dots, then click the one you think is right.
Proper villages: a church, a main street, a few thousand people at most. This is the tier where local knowledge starts to matter more than general geography.
In Italy this set is spread across 19 different regions, with Lombardy home to the most of them (158).
Place kinds on GuessTheDot are a practical grouping by population and place type for gameplay, not a legal or historical designation. A place can hold official city rights (or an old city charter) and still show up here as a village if it stayed small, and the other way around: this is a rough size ladder for guessing, not a statement about a place's official status.
Only the 250 biggest fit on this page. The game still picks from all 664.
