Expedition #1005

This trip through World is set at Easy. The 15 questions come in three legs — Find the country (5 questions), then Name the country (5 questions), then Capitals (5 questions) — and visit 15 countries in all.

• In the map leg you tap 5 countries; a miss shows the right one and how far away you were.
• In the naming leg 5 countries light up on the map and you choose each name from four.
• The capitals leg alternates: 5 questions, country to capital and back again.

Easy means the questions come from the best-known countries of the region, and wrong options from other parts of the world, so most of them can be ruled out at a glance.

If you joined the stops capital to capital, in the order the questions bring them, the dashed line would be 91,290 km long, with 14 hops between 15 stops.

Tips from the window seat

• Find the country: Before tapping, find a neighbour you are sure of and work from there.
• Name the country: If the close view confuses you, zoom out once and look at the whole region.
• Capitals: If two cities sound right, think of which country each one belongs to.
