Expedition #1028 stays in Europe at the Hard level: three legs, 13 questions and 16 different countries along the way. It opens with Name the country (5 questions), carries on with Bigger or smaller (3 questions) and lands with Flags (5 questions).
- In the naming leg 5 countries light up on the map and you choose each name from four.
- The size leg mixes 3 duels on people and on land.
- The flags leg shows 5 flags and asks for their countries; 5 different flags pass in front of you.
The Hard setting is for people who know the region: no easy countries, and every wrong option sits right next to the right one.
The full route, drawn from capital to capital as the questions come, measures 18,250 km: 15 hops in all.
Tips from the window seat
- Name the country: Count the neighbours you recognise around the yellow shape.
- Bigger or smaller: Do not trust the map for area: flat maps distort sizes.
- Flags: Look for the small details: a star, a crescent, an emblem.
