🌍✈️
Yesterday, this flight really happened.
A real long-haul flight from the last 24 hours. You see where it took off,
and only the first part of its route. Find the airport where it landed.
🎯
Six guesses to close in.
Every guess tells you how far off you are and in which direction,
unlocks a new clue, and draws the route a little further.
🟩 correct · 🟨 under 500 km · 🟧 under 2,500 km · 🟥 further
🗺️
The map remembers where you have been.
Three flights a day, getting harder. Every destination you find lands on your own
world map and stays there, even on the days you miss.
How to play
✈️ GUESS WHERE THE FLIGHT IS LANDING
A real flight is drawn on an unlabeled world map, but only the beginning of its route.
Find its destination airport in 6 tries.
After each wrong guess, the route reveals a bit more, a new clue unlocks
(aircraft, airline, duration, departure airport, first letter) and you get the distance and direction
from your guess to the true destination.
🟩 correct · 🟨 <500 km · 🟧 <2,500 km · 🟥 further · % = how close you are (100% = the airport)
On the map each guess also has its own shape: ● correct, ◎ ring under 500 km,
■ square under 2,500 km, ◆ diamond beyond. Every guess shows its exact distance in the list too.
3 flights per day, same for the whole planet: EASY, then MEDIUM, then HARD
(worth more points). Pinch or scroll to zoom the map. Find at least one flight a day to keep your streak 🔥
ABOUT, AND YOUR DATA
Flight VJF is a small daily game built by three people, and named after their initials.
The flights are real: live long haul traffic is sampled through the day and the next day's three flights are
composed from it every night.
Nothing you do here leaves your device. Your streak, your points and your atlas are
stored in this browser only, which is also why clearing your browser data resets them. There is no account, no
login, no cookie and no profile. Anonymous page views are counted, so we know whether anyone is playing at all,
and that is the whole of it.
Replay any previous day. Archive games never touch your streak.
Statistics
Weekly points reset every Monday. Your streak, all time points and destinations found are kept
on this device only, so clearing your browser data resets them.
Your atlas
Your atlas only ever grows: a missed day never takes anything away from it.
It lives on this device only, so clearing your browser data resets it.
