This trip through Africa is set at Medium. The 14 questions come in three legs — Capitals (6 questions), then Find the country (5 questions), then Bigger or smaller (3 questions) — and visit 17 countries in all.
- The capitals leg turns things round: 6 capitals, and you name the country of each.
- In the map leg you tap 5 countries; a miss shows the right one and how far away you were.
- The size leg is 3 population duels: which of two countries has more people?
At the Medium level most of the region is in play and the wrong options are fellow countries of the same continent.
Capital to capital, in question order, the route covers 52,760 km over 16 hops.
Tips from the window seat
- Capitals: Capitals that are not the largest city are the classic trap.
- Find the country: Read the distance after a miss: it tells you how close you were.
- Bigger or smaller: Do not trust the map for area: flat maps distort sizes.
