Expedition #1153

This trip through Africa is set at Medium. The 15 questions come in three legs — Name the country (6 questions), then Flags (5 questions), then Find the country (4 questions) — and visit 15 countries in all.

• In the naming leg 6 countries light up on the map and you choose each name from four.
• The flags leg names 5 countries and gives you four flags each time, 18 different flags in all.
• In the map leg you tap 4 countries; a miss shows the right one and how far away you were.

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 46,920 km over 14 hops.

Tips from the window seat

• 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.
• Find the country: Before tapping, find a neighbour you are sure of and work from there.
