HOW TO PLAY

Ten ways to test your geography.

Every game mode is designed around a quick question-and-feedback loop. Finish rounds to earn XP and improve country mastery on this device.

Find the Country

You are given a country name and asked to click or tap it on the world map. Use the zoom controls, mouse wheel or touch gestures when you need a closer look. Tiny states use dedicated markers so they remain selectable.

Flag Challenge

A national flag appears with several country choices. Pick the matching country. Correct answers build mastery for that country.

Capital Challenge

You are shown a country and choose its capital from the available answers. This mode focuses on country-capital associations rather than map shape recognition.

Place the Capital

You are given a capital city. Drag and zoom the world map, click once to place your marker, then press Guess to lock it in. Your score depends on how close the marker is to the real capital.

Country Neighbours

Choose a country that shares a land border with the target. This helps build a regional mental map instead of treating countries as isolated facts.

Distance Challenge

Compare geographic distances and choose which capital is closer. After answering, the map reveals both routes and distances before you click to continue.

Country Outline

Identify a country from a large fitted silhouette, without labels or a world-map context.

Flag Blitz

Rapid-fire flag recognition with a stronger speed multiplier. Flags are rendered as real SVG images rather than device-dependent emoji.

No Mistakes

Keep finding countries until you make one mistake or clear every country in the selected region.

States & Provinces

Choose a country, then identify its first-level administrative areas—such as states, provinces, regions, prefectures or governorates—on a real boundary map. The selected country’s first-level boundary map is loaded on demand from geoBoundaries (gbOpen, CC BY 4.0).

Scores, streaks and XP

Round scoring rewards correct answers, accuracy and sustained streaks. XP contributes to your Explorer level. The profile page shows best streaks, games played, achievements and mastery by continent.

Daily World Sprint

The daily mode uses a date-based seed so everyone playing that day gets the same five country-finding questions. Your first completed run is recorded as the official score for that date on your device.

Tip: When a country keeps catching you out, open the Learn section, search for it, check its capital and neighbours, then return to a map round.

States Random Streak

Open States & Provinces and choose Random Streak. Each correct answer loads another country-only subdivision map. One wrong answer ends the run, and signed-in players can rank by their longest consecutive streak.
