How to play, and what people ask

A memory game on the Paris and Île-de-France network: type every station name that comes to mind, without looking at the map.

How many stations does the Paris Métro have?

The Paris Métro has 321 stations on 16 lines: lines 1 to 14 plus 3bis and 7bis, including the 2024 extensions. A station served by several lines, such as Châtelet, counts once.

How do I play?

Type a station name and press Enter. The clock starts with your first right answer, the station lights up on the map, and a section turns to its line colour once both ends are found. “Validate my ticket” ends the game and shows the stations you missed.

Do I need accents and hyphens?

No. “Chatelet”, “Châtelet” and “CHÂTELET” all work, and so do “St-Lazare” and “Saint-Lazare”. Japanese players can also answer in katakana (シャトレ) where a Japanese name exists.

Can I play with the RER and the tram?

Yes: under the title, switch on the RER (5 lines, A to E, 240 stations) and the tram (14 lines, 271 stops). Each combination is a game of its own, with its own score. All together it is 777 different stations.

Why doesn’t “Luxembourg” count in a Métro game?

Luxembourg is a station on the RER B, not the Métro. The game says so and offers to add the RER. Likewise “Eiffel Tower” is not a station name: the stations near it flash on the map.

Is it free? Are my answers stored?

Free, no sign-up and no ads. The game in progress is kept in your browser only, so it survives a reload.

Where does the data come from?

Routes and station order come from OpenStreetMap (ODbL), Japanese names from Wikidata (CC0), line colours from the IDFM charter. This is an independent game, not affiliated with RATP, SNCF or IDFM.
