Dagens Nyheter launches a themed week of its game 'Guess the Place' coinciding with the Winter Olympics. The game tasks players with pinpointing the exact locations of past Winter Olympic events, enhancing their knowledge of Olympic geography. Each day, three different locations are released for players to guess, aiming to engage readers in a fun and educational way.

Joanna Constantinescu, responsible for DN's site team, highlights that while there are relatively few cities that have hosted the Winter Olympics, determining the precise location can be challenging. This is partly because competitions often take place in areas separate from the main host city, requiring players not only to be familiar with Olympic history but also to navigate through Google Street View effectively. The interactive element of the game aims to increase user engagement and bring attention to the Olympics' diverse range of host cities.

The game also encourages players to sign up for a free account on Dagens Nyheter to make the most of the platform's features, such as personalized news following and newsletters. This initiative showcases how media outlets can combine traditional news reporting with interactive formats to capture audience interest, especially during significant global sporting events like the Winter Olympics.
