Expedition #1079

On expedition #1079 you cross North and Central America at the Hard level. The route has 12 stops spread over 12 questions in three legs: Capitals (4 questions), Flags (4 questions) and finally Name the country (4 questions).

• The capitals leg turns things round: 4 capitals, and you name the country of each.
• The flags leg alternates between naming a flag and picking one: 4 questions and 9 different flags.
• In the naming leg 4 countries light up on the map and you choose each name from four.

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 11,460 km: 11 hops in all.

Tips from the window seat

• Capitals: If two cities sound right, think of which country each one belongs to.
• 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.
