StateGrid

What is StateGrid?

The State Grid Game is an engaging and educational puzzle game where players identify U.S. states hidden within a 2x2 grid. Each cell must be filled with a state that matches both its row and column criteria. Combining logical thinking with knowledge of U.S. geography, climate, and history, this game challenges players to solve the grid while learning about the 50 states. It belongs to the geography family of daily games: one shared puzzle per day for every player.

How to play

1. Start the Game: Launch the State Grid Game and view the 2x2 grid with 4 cells to fill.
2. Understand the Criteria: Each row and column has a category, such as: Climate (temperature, snowfall), Geography (population, area, coastline), Regional Traits (Sunbelt, Midwest, borders), and more. Click on a category title to learn more.
3. Select a Cell, Make a Guess: Click or tap on any cell to make a guess. The state must match both the row and column criteria for that cell.
4. Use Your 10 Attempts: You have 10 total guesses to fill all 4 cells. Each wrong guess reduces your chances, so think carefully.
5. Complete the Grid: Fill all 4 cells correctly to win. If you run out of attempts, the correct answers will be shown.

Tips & strategy

Guess a country far from your first attempt to triangulate — the distance and direction hints narrow the map fast.
