This trip through Africa is set at Medium. The 15 questions come in three legs — Find the country (5 questions), then Capitals (5 questions), then Flags (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.
- The capitals leg alternates: 5 questions, country to capital and back again.
- The flags leg shows 5 flags and asks for their countries; 5 different flags pass in front of you.
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 54,350 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.
- Capitals: Say the pair in both directions in your head after each answer.
- Flags: Look for the small details: a star, a crescent, an emblem.
