# Welcome to MineGeo

Welcome, explorer! MineGeo drops you into a Minecraft view and asks one question: **where are you?** Look for clues, pick a spot on the map, and see how close you got.

> Me: “I know this place.” Also me: guesses on the other side of the map. 🗿

## Just want to play?

1. Open [Play & maps](https://minegeo.vercel.app/servers).
2. Choose a map.
3. Choose Easy for a relaxed first game.
4. Click **Start exploring**.

You can play public maps without an account or Minecraft installed. A game has five rounds. Read **Your first game** in the page menu if you want a walkthrough.

## Find your guide

- **Multiplayer and chat:** invite friends and talk while you play.
- **Accounts and appearance:** change your name, theme, or glow color.
- **Windows desktop client:** play in a separate app.
- **Create and publish a map:** let others explore your Minecraft builds.
- **Share and import maps:** play a map your friend sent as a ZIP file.
- **Bug reports and support:** get help when something breaks.

## A small heads-up

You need an internet connection. Sign in to host a party or keep your own maps. These instructions use the English button names; Russian is available in the site's footer.
