On expedition #1179 you cross Asia at the Easy level. The route has 15 stops spread over 15 questions in three legs: Name the country (5 questions), Flags (6 questions) and finally Find the country (4 questions).
- In the naming leg 5 countries light up on the map and you choose each name from four.
- The flags leg alternates between naming a flag and picking one: 6 questions and 14 different flags.
- In the map leg you tap 4 countries; a miss shows the right one and how far away you were.
Easy means the questions come from the best-known countries of the region, and wrong options from other parts of the world, so most of them can be ruled out at a glance.
If you joined the stops capital to capital, in the order the questions bring them, the dashed line would be 49,860 km long, with 14 hops between 15 stops.
Tips from the window seat
- 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.
- Find the country: Read the distance after a miss: it tells you how close you were.
