Sorting data, the quiz game
"Speaking of data games, Dataguessr by David Bauer is a sorting game that follows in the steps of NYT's Flashback quizzes. Each day is a new dataset, such as total population by country. Then you sort a selection of seven countries, one at a time. The goal is to place as many countries as you can in the right spot on the list."

Dataguessr is a daily sorting game that challenges players to rank items from a provided dataset. Each day features a new dataset, for example total population by country. Players receive seven countries and place them on a ranked list one at a time, aiming to position as many correctly as possible. The underlying estimates are sourced from Our World in Data, which can produce very close values between items. Close estimates increase difficulty and require careful comparison, making the game deceptively challenging even for familiar datasets. The game combines data literacy with casual, repeatable play through daily variation.
