Expedition #1136

Expedition #1136 stays in North and Central America at the Medium level: three legs, 11 questions and 14 different countries along the way. It opens with Bigger or smaller (3 questions), carries on with Name the country (4 questions) and lands with Flags (4 questions).

• 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.
• The flags leg shows 4 flags and asks for their countries; 4 different flags pass in front of you.

The Medium setting widens the pool and keeps the wrong answers on the same continent: neighbours are not far away.

The full route, drawn from capital to capital as the questions come, measures 23,560 km: 13 hops in all.

Tips from the window seat

• 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.
• Flags: Look for the small details: a star, a crescent, an emblem.
