Expedition #1060 stays in World at the Hard level: three legs, 13 questions and 16 different countries along the way. It opens with Find the country (5 questions), carries on with Capitals (5 questions) and lands with Bigger or smaller (3 questions).
- 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 size leg is 3 population duels: which of two countries has more people?
At the Hard level the obvious countries are left out and the wrong options are close neighbours of the right one, or, for flags, the closest look-alikes.
Capital to capital, in question order, the route covers 121,730 km over 15 hops.
Tips from the window seat
- Find the country: Zoom in for the small ones; at the full view a few countries are only a dot.
- Capitals: If two cities sound right, think of which country each one belongs to.
- Bigger or smaller: Do not trust the map for area: flat maps distort sizes.
