Games

For more serious use in interactive worlds, see Simulators.

Gamification of map contributions

• AddressHunter - Mobile game for gathering address data
• How did you contribute to OpenStreetMap? - scoring and ranking your contribution
• JOSM/Plugins/WMS Racer - Not contributing as such, unless you're using it to record a useful GPX trace
• Kort Game - Gamified Mobile App based on KeepRight data
• OSMFight - Similar scoring idea, but comparing with another user in a map contribution face off
• MapATag - Guess tags, by Wheelmap
• Maproulette - Find bugs and win the competition by fixing most of them
• Mapping Parties - Encourage by teamwork

Single actions

• Bing#FrontDoor addressing project ([1]) - not a game a such, but simple fun tasks
• Night of the living maps - Mapping like zombies
• Operation Cowboy - Mapping the U.S. countryside

Games using OpenStreetMap data

• Train Lord
• Monopoly City Streets
• Nike Grid [2]
• Gbanga - mixed reality social gaming
• GPS Mission
• X-Plane
• geodart
• Master City (Android)

Retro gaming styled maps

Not actual game data converters sadly, but awesome nonetheless:

• 8bitcity.com - Zelda style
• Warcraft II style (broken?)

Ideas

• OSM Worms: Worms crawling along the roads and eating cars. They grow longer and longer. They are slower on smaller roads.
• ZombieMap
• OSM4Games a modularized exporter for different game genres
