On expedition #1095 you cross World at the Medium level. The route has 15 stops spread over 15 questions in three legs: Find the country (6 questions), Capitals (5 questions) and finally Name the country (4 questions).
- In the map leg you tap 6 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.
- In the naming leg 4 countries light up on the map and you choose each name from four.
Medium draws on three quarters of the region, and the wrong options come from the same continent, so you have to know where things actually are.
If you joined the stops capital to capital, in the order the questions bring them, the dashed line would be 97,380 km long, with 14 hops between 15 stops.
Tips from the window seat
- Find the country: Before tapping, find a neighbour you are sure of and work from there.
- Capitals: Capitals that are not the largest city are the classic trap.
- Name the country: Count the neighbours you recognise around the yellow shape.
