Expedition #1063

On expedition #1063 you cross Africa at the Hard level. The route has 14 stops spread over 11 questions in three legs: Capitals (4 questions), Bigger or smaller (3 questions) and finally Name the country (4 questions).

• The capitals leg asks for the capital of 4 countries.
• The size leg is 3 area duels: which of two countries is larger?
• In the naming leg 4 countries light up on the map and you choose each name from four.

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 52,570 km over 13 hops.

Tips from the window seat

• Capitals: Capitals that are not the largest city are the classic trap.
• Bigger or smaller: Near-ties are common on Hard; the figures appear after each answer.
• Name the country: Look at the coastline first: which sea a country touches rules out half the options.
