Crumb Hunt · inside Crumble

The daily food quiz,
played on a world map.

Every day, one round: dishes appear, you guess where on Earth they come from. Pin-drop precision earns XP, daily play builds your streak, and a leaderboard settles whose food knowledge actually travels.

Try a sample round

Three real-style questions. Make your guess, then open the answer — no account needed.

Question 1

Rendang — slow-cooked beef in coconut and spices. Which country is it from?

Reveal the answer

Indonesia. West Sumatra, to be precise — Minangkabau cuisine. Common wrong pin: Malaysia, where it's also beloved.

Question 2

Pastel de nata — the caramelised custard tart. Drop your pin on its home city.

Reveal the answer

Lisbon, Portugal. Invented by monks at the Jerónimos Monastery in Belém before 1837. Distance from your pin decides your score.

Question 3

Butter chicken was invented in one specific city in the 1950s. Which one?

Reveal the answer

Delhi, India. At Moti Mahal restaurant — leftover tandoori chicken rescued in a tomato-butter gravy.

In the real game you answer on an interactive map — distance from the true origin decides your score, and near misses in the right region still earn partial credit.

How Crumb Hunt works

  1. Guess on the map

    Each question names a dish, ingredient, or food tradition. Pick the country — or drop a pin — where it was born. Haversine distance from the true origin scores your answer.

  2. Earn XP, build your streak

    Correct layers pay XP into the same levels as your restaurant reviews. Playing daily builds a streak that multiplies every reward — milestone streaks mint one-time bonuses.

  3. Climb the leaderboard

    A leaderboard ranks hunters; mastering a region's cuisine earns region mastery. Wrong guesses still teach — every reveal tells the story behind the dish.

A food geography game, not a trivia grind

Crumb Hunt is a daily food quiz in the same family as map-guessing games like GeoGuessr — except the thing you're locating is food. Where was butter chicken invented? Which coast claims ceviche? Is rendang Indonesian or Malaysian? One round unlocks every day, so it takes two minutes, not an evening. It's built into Crumble, the social food map, which means your quiz XP, your restaurant reviews, and your food passport all feed one profile. Free to play in any browser, with a daily question allowance on the free tier and no cap on Crumble Plus.

Frequently asked

What is Crumb Hunt?

Crumb Hunt is Crumble's daily food quiz — a food-origin geography game. Each round shows you a dish and you guess where it comes from, by picking a country or dropping a pin on the world map. Closer guesses score more, correct answers earn XP, playing daily builds a streak with multipliers, and a leaderboard ranks you against other players.

Is Crumb Hunt like GeoGuessr for food?

That's the closest comparison: instead of guessing where a street photo was taken, you guess where a dish, ingredient, or food tradition comes from — on a real map, with distance-based scoring. It sits in the same family as daily games like FoodGuessr or Tastele, but it lives inside Crumble, so playing feeds the same XP and levels as your restaurant reviews.

Is Crumb Hunt free?

Yes. Every Crumble account gets a free daily allowance of questions; Crumble Plus removes the daily cap. Crumble itself is free and runs in any browser — no app store download needed.

How do streaks work?

Answering correctly on consecutive days builds your streak. Streaks act as XP multipliers — the longer the streak, the more every correct answer pays — and crossing milestones mints one-time bonus XP. Miss a day and the multiplier resets, so the daily round becomes a habit fast.

Do I need to know fancy food trivia?

No. Questions ladder from approachable (which country invented pizza?) to genuinely hard (which city invented butter chicken?), and near-miss pins still earn partial credit. The game teaches as it goes — wrong answers reveal the story behind the dish.

Today's round is waiting.

Two minutes. One map. Don't break the streak you haven't started yet.
