Map Mode — Trial VII
Pin the Location on the Lands Between World Map
Map Mode shows a screenshot taken from somewhere within the Lands Between. Your task is to
click the interactive world map to mark exactly where you think the photograph was taken. The
closer your pin is to the true location, the higher your score. Three maps are available —
the main Lands Between overworld, the underground realm, and the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC region.
How to Play Map Mode
- Study the in-game screenshot shown — examine biome, architecture, sky, and landmarks.
- Select which of the three maps the screenshot belongs to: main Lands Between, underground, or DLC.
- Click the map to place your pin at the location you believe the screenshot was taken.
- Your score is calculated based on the distance between your pin and the true location.
- The closer your pin, the higher the score — perfect placement earns maximum points.
Tips & Strategies
- Biome identification is the fastest first step — lush green with fog means Limgrave, scarlet decay means Caelid, crystal formations signal Liurnia.
- Architecture style differs clearly by region — gothic stonework in Leyndell, ruined brick in Limgrave, ornate marble in Raya Lucaria.
- Sky and lighting change dramatically with zone — the burning sky of Caelid, the eternal night of Mohgwyn Palace, the golden light of Altus Plateau.
- Recognizable landmarks such as Erdtree branches, legacy dungeon towers, and Sites of Grace can pinpoint a location precisely.
- Underground locations have distinctive bioluminescent flora and a starlit ceiling unique to Siofra, Ainsel, and Nokron.
