+
+**What is this?**
+
+This is a game that uses Geoguessr as inspiration.
+
+**Why does this exist?**
+
+Sadly, because of Google's predatory pricing strategy for their Maps api, geoguessr have had to modify their game in a detrimental way to cut costs.
+
+I created this project to allow people to play the game how it used to be (or as close to it).
+
+**What does the "Broken Streetview" button do?**
+
+Sometimes a coordinate with no valid streetview is selected for you, you will just get a black screen.
+
+If this occurs please click the "Broken Streetview" button and you will be provided with a new scene and the faulty coordinate will be removed from the database.
+
+
