Expedition #1171

On expedition #1171 you cross Europe at the Hard level. The route has 15 stops spread over 12 questions in three legs: Capitals (5 questions), Bigger or smaller (3 questions) and finally Find the country (4 questions).

• The capitals leg asks for the capital of 5 countries.
• The size leg is 3 population duels: which of two countries has more people?
• In the map leg you tap 4 countries; a miss shows the right one and how far away you were.

At the Hard level the obvious countries are left out and the wrong options are close neighbours of the right one, or, for flags, the closest look-alikes.

Capital to capital, in question order, the route covers 15,750 km over 14 hops.

Tips from the window seat

• Capitals: Capitals that are not the largest city are the classic trap.
• Bigger or smaller: Near-ties are common on Hard; the figures appear after each answer.
• Find the country: Before tapping, find a neighbour you are sure of and work from there.
