Expedition #1098

Three legs, 15 questions, 15 countries of Europe: that is expedition #1098, flown at the Easy level. First Find the country (5 questions), then Name the country (5 questions), and to finish Flags (5 questions).

• In the map leg you tap 5 countries; a miss shows the right one and how far away you were.
• In the naming leg 5 countries light up on the map and you choose each name from four.
• The flags leg alternates between naming a flag and picking one: 5 questions and 10 different flags.

Easy means the questions come from the best-known countries of the region, and wrong options from other parts of the world, so most of them can be ruled out at a glance.

If you joined the stops capital to capital, in the order the questions bring them, the dashed line would be 18,770 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.
• Name the country: If the close view confuses you, zoom out once and look at the whole region.
• Flags: Plain tricolours are the hardest; check the colour of the middle band.
