Higher or Lower — the Jávea distance game
One area, one real distance. We show how far a corner of Jávea sits from the Cap de la Nau lighthouse — then you call whether the next area is higher or lower. Right, and the chain keeps going. Every number is measured, not invented.
How the numbers work: each distance is the straight-line, as-the-crow-flies distance from that area’s map coordinates to the Cap de la Nau (Cabo de la Nao) lighthouse — approximate, and not driving distance. Coordinates come from our own zones.json area data.
How it works — and the real distances
Pick Higher or Lower on each pair and the real answer appears: both areas’ true straight-line distance from the Cap de la Nau lighthouse. With JavaScript on, the same numbers drive an endless chain where each correct call extends your streak.
