I'm temporarily reviving this account to explain a bit the situation about #Geoguessr becoming paid only (sort of). You can find a French version below.
So until recently Geoguessr could be played for free. You could get a Pro account only for more features like map editor.
But now you can only play a low version of the world map with a free account. Everything else requires pro. The reason is simple: the game costs too much money to maintain. For your information, Geoguessr isn't the main activity of its developers. Just a small side project.
