I am working on an android game(which is created using Unity3d engine) and I was trying to use google game service features when I stumbled upon a question implementing leaderboards.

Is there any way to sort player scores based on their location?

I want players to know their rank in their country, continent, etc. Something like google's time based leaderboards(daily, weekly and monthly)

Do I have to implement this feature myself? If so leave your thoughts and ideas.

  • hi, have you found a solution? – beatsspam Mar 01 '20 at 19:04
  • Hi @beatsspam, no I've not fount any solutions implementing the leaderboard with help of google play services. What I ended up doing was ditching the feature and forgetting about it. But you can always implement that and more complex sort of stuff if you had your own server. Cheers! – Explosion Mar 09 '20 at 07:56

Creating your own leaderboard means you have to write a Server (i.e. a HTTP Server) that can store the players, the scores and the locations (preferably in a database). Getting the location of your users depends on the final build (browser, app, windows exe, etc.)

  • I am not familiar with google play services, maybe they offer something like that – Rapwnzel Sep 11 '18 at 19:34
