About Reborder

A small geography game about the lines that connect the world.

Last updated: 2026-10-24

One outline. Two neighbors. Your line.

Reborder at playreborder.com is a free browser game that asks a simple question: can you draw the border between two neighboring places? You see their names and a combined outline. The dividing line is yours to discover.

Draw with a mouse, a finger, or the keyboard, submit your guess, and compare it with the map. Scores reflect how closely your drawing follows the boundary and how much of it you cover. Each round is a chance to notice a bend, recognize a coastline, or remember a shape for next time.

A daily challenge or a little more exploring

Daily gives everyone the same four country-border puzzles, with up to 60 seconds for each drawing. A new challenge arrives at midnight UTC. Compare your result on the daily leaderboard and come back tomorrow for another set.

Unlimited lets you choose a region and keep playing without a timer or a daily round limit. Explore the world, individual continents, or U.S. states. Its exploration leaderboard adds your best score for each different border, so improving a previous drawing can help your total grow. The puzzle collection is finite; familiar borders may appear again.

You can start as a guest. An optional account keeps your player identity and saved progress available across devices. A nickname is enough for the public leaderboard; you do not need to use your real name.

An independent take on border drawing

This website is independently built, inspired by the border-drawing gameplay at reborder.app. It is not the official website of that project and is not affiliated with or endorsed by it. Our puzzles are generated from public geographic datasets, and our drawing and scoring systems are implemented separately.

About the maps

Country outlines come from Natural Earth data distributed through world-atlas. U.S. state outlines come from U.S. Census Bureau data distributed through us-atlas. We simplify and project those shapes to make them playable on a small drawing board. Some islands, detached territories, and complicated border sections are left out.

These are historical, generalized maps for a game. They are not current or authoritative maps, navigation aids, or statements about sovereignty and disputed territory. See the map data sources and licenses for attribution and license text.
