Show HN: Optimule, a free vehicle routing platform built with Open Route Service
A shout-out about the mention Open Route Service, which is IMO fantastic.
I wrote a small mapping app to do navigation when we moved cross-continent a few years back. I didn't want to have to worry about trying to pull map data over the Internet, since I wasn't certain that I would even have Internet during the journey. I whipped together a small app using map tile data from OSM (great project), got the directions in a usable format (GeoJSON) from Open Route Service (great project) and rendered the entire thing with OpenLayers (https://openlayers.org/), a JS library (great project). We had a USB GPS tracker¹ hooked to a laptop that tracked our route/position.
(We also did occasionally use Google Maps on the phones, too. For some tasks, that was easier.)
¹hardware GPS is so much nicer than phone. Near instant fix, vs. both our phone's 30s to several minute fix times…

Vue3 + Apollo + Realm = <3 (Realm Tutorial Pt. 4)
We are also going to use a javascript library to visualize our data. I have found OpenLayers, and more specifically the Vue 3 Flavor, to be super simple to work with. Finally, let's let at parts one through three.

[OC] Interactive Heatmap of Traffic Accidents Reported by the Missouri State Highway Patrol
It didn't take long to discover OpenLayers, and after some experimentation I was surprised to find that their heatmap implementation is objectively better than Google's. But while the OpenStreetMap data is provided for free, their tile servers are not, so I also needed a way to serve my own tiles.

Tool recommendations for map-based game
Perhaps you could use something like this in Leaflet or Openlayers. Those are both Javascript libraries that can be used for some pretty good online interactive maps.

PostGIS at 20, the Beginning
Did you consider OpenLayers?
It's been around for a long time and is really powerful when compared to other open source web-based mapping/GIS options - unfortunately I never really need the advanced features in the projects I tend to work on.

Which GIS tool can provide an interface for box overlays such as this?
If you already / Once have your squares with data, then it's only displaying them on a map. QGIS2Web, Openlayers, Mapbox or CARTO can be some ways to start but if you want user interaction you'll probably have to code it yourself. Bokeh can probably be used for that too (Mapping geo data) but you'll probably have less liberty than in JS.

Geography Game using OpenLayers
