Three legs, 15 questions, 15 countries of Africa: that is expedition #1010, flown at the Medium level. First Find the country (6 questions), then Flags (4 questions), and to finish Name the country (5 questions).
- In the map leg you tap 6 countries; a miss shows the right one and how far away you were.
- The flags leg alternates between naming a flag and picking one: 4 questions and 9 different flags.
- In the naming leg 5 countries light up on the map and you choose each name from four.
The Medium setting widens the pool and keeps the wrong answers on the same continent: neighbours are not far away.
The full route, drawn from capital to capital as the questions come, measures 33,710 km: 14 hops in all.
Tips from the window seat
- Find the country: Read the distance after a miss: it tells you how close you were.
- Flags: Read each flag from the pole side; order matters.
- Name the country: If the close view confuses you, zoom out once and look at the whole region.
After the landing
Finish the third leg and the expedition is stamped in your passport; the button for expedition #1011 appears right under the quiz.
