Expedition #1148 stays in South America at the Hard level: three legs, 11 questions and 11 different countries along the way. It opens with Capitals (3 questions), carries on with Find the country (4 questions) and lands with Name the country (4 questions).
- The capitals leg turns things round: 3 capitals, and you name the country of each.
- In the map leg you tap 4 countries; a miss shows the right one and how far away you were.
- 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 26,750 km: 10 hops in all.
Tips from the window seat
- Capitals: If two cities sound right, think of which country each one belongs to.
- 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.
