Modes with their own page
Rules
- Each question has several options and only one is right.
- Each correct answer is worth 100 points, plus up to 100 for your streak and up to 50 for answering fast.
- Games are 10 or 25 questions, or endless with 3 lives.
- On Normal and Hard there’s a timer per question, and some wrong options come from the same continent.
Strategy
Scoring rewards streaks more than speed: ten in a row adds up to 100 extra points per question, while instant answers add 50 at most. So in long games it pays to be sure of each answer rather than rush.

Tips
- Start on Easy in the mode you find hardest: with no timer, you learn without pressure.
- On Hard, rule options out by continent first, then by detail.
- Flags with similar stripes differ in the order of their colors: check it before answering.
- In endless mode, protect your lives: a slow but sure answer beats losing your streak.
Common mistakes
- Assuming the capital is the biggest city: Canberra, Ottawa, Brasília, Ankara and Abuja say otherwise.
- Rushing for speed points: the streak is worth twice as much as speed, and one mistake breaks it.
- Mixing up similar flags by looking only at the colours: check their order and proportions.
- Jumping to Hard too soon: on Easy, with no timer, you learn much faster.
