Explore 120,000+ games, books, movies, and shows by when and where their stories take place. Here's a quick guide to help you navigate:

🌍 Using the Map

• Tap on country, province, or city names to filter stories set in that location.
• Cities appear as clickable nodes when you zoom in, or as glowing dots if you turn on the "Lights" layer.
• The map follows a hierarchical location system:
  → Clicking on a country will show stories set in that country and in any provinces or cities within it.
  → Clicking on a province shows stories from that province and any cities inside it, even if the item is specifically tagged only to a city.
  → Clicking on a city shows only items tagged to that exact city.

🕰️ Filtering by Time

• If you're on desktop, hover over the century nodes on the time slider for precise selection, or you can use the time picker button.
• On mobile, tap the "Time" button to manually select the time period (century, decade, or specific year).

📖 Story Cards & Media Features

• Tap any story card to expand it and learn more about the item.
• All its associated locations will be highlighted on the map — click any of them to zoom in.
• Scroll down to see videos (available for many games and movies).
• On tablet or desktop, you can also click the "Media" button to open the video in a separate window.
• Use the "Pin" button to keep the video visible while you explore.
• Want just the soundtrack? Tap the "Music Pin" button to pin only the audio, so you can keep browsing the map while the music plays.

🔍 Searching

• Use the search bar to find stories by title.
• Combine this with map or time filters for targeted results.

🎲 Random Button

• Tap the "Random" button to jump to a surprise story!
• It respects your current filters — location, time, and category — so it only picks from what you've selected.

🎥 City Walking Videos

• Inside the video tab, all locations have real-world walking tour videos, so you can experience their vibe directly.
