Re: tough world map game
I lost at level 8 (World Capitals- Hard), when they started giving me countries like Comoros (wtf?) and I started clicking on completely the wrong side of continents.

Re: tough world map game
Lost on level 8. I'm terrible at the African capitals and the capitals that are in the middle of the ocean.
Pretty fun though. |
Re: tough world map game
Lost on Lvl 10 although I blame two misclicks due to lag, as I almost made 11. I guess those evened out my random guesses though on the island nations.

Re: tough world map game
Reached level 9 on my first try. Fun game, but I suck at all the different countries/cities in the pacific.
I've been fooling around with this game/tutorials Yeah, i know it's for kids, but I noticed that my knowledge of African countries was close to zero. Kind of embarrassing to meet people and you haven't even heard of the country they're from... |
Re: tough world map game
Nice find, Dominic. This is the kind of game that I will obsess over until I memorize every location to within 200km or so. I'm not sure yet if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

This shepherd software link has been on here before and it greatly improved my world geography it gets pretty addicting. I just get weird looks during jeopardy when i know thimpu is the capital of Bhutan. |
Re: tough world map game
I got to level 11. Most of the time, I didn't know the specific city, and I just clicked somewhere in the country. Twice, I got burned when I transposed Austria and Austrilia trying to click fast. Also, I once interpreted DRC as democtic republic of Korea.
|
Re: tough world map game
I lost on level ten because of clicking too fast on...
Angora/Angola Mauritius/Mauritania Solomon Islands |
Re: tough world map game
[censored] Level 11 got me. How was I supposed to know that Christmas Island, Australia is off the coast of Indonesia, or Björgelflørgen or whatever the hell it is, Norway is basically in Greenland?

Re: tough world map game
Level 11 stumped me twice before I finally got through. Level 12 was like 90% Russia/China/Australia, so it kicked my ass.
http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1.../travelers.jpg Closest I got to anything was 6km to Thimpu, Bhutan. It's a small country so I guess I got a lucky click. |
Re: tough world map game
I'm ashamed to say I only got to level ten, then my 11 year old sat down and owned me by getting to level 11 on her first try.

Re: tough world map game
I got to level 11 first time. Love this game... about to try again.

Re: tough world map game

Re: tough world map game
Made it to level 12 and it's sick hard. It asks where "*some random name* island, Norway" is. I of course click on the sea near Norway, and it's actually somewhere south of Africa!

I realize how bad I am at differentiating sub-saharan African countries. |
Re: tough world map game
Closest I've come is 11KM to Tripoli, I loled

Re: tough world map game
Level 11 is tough.

Re: tough world map game
Level 5, geography's not my strong suit.

Re: tough world map game
i lost on 6 twice, then 8. my first two losses on 6 seemed flukish, but i hadn't even heard of 9/10 of the places on lvl 8, i was just guessing.
|
Re: tough world map game
You guys are crazy. I'm maxed out on level 6.
Seems like with enough play and decent memory you could make it pretty far since a lot of the locations repeat. |
Re: tough world map game
[censored] you, Russia.

Re: tough world map game
omg my wife can't get through level 2. She was clicking the middle of China for Tokyo, Japan, and clicked somewhere in Iraq for Jerusalem.

Re: tough world map game
Yay!

Re: tough world map game
Finally broke through.
http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...travelers2.jpg They gave me a cakewalk level 12 full of a lot of countries in Africa. |
Re: tough world map game
Nice score. Yeah, the time I managed it they gave me two different cities in Sri Lanka, which made it easy. The hardest ones by far are the ones in the huge countries (China, Australia, Russia especially), and the tiny little islands I've never heard of floating around in the Pacific.

Re: tough world map game
i gotta say...i'm slowly learning a lot playing this game.

Re: tough world map game
Crapped out at level 11. Vanuatu?
|
Re: tough world map game
OMG, this was a sick guess. In 1.7 seconds no less. I wasn't expecting Australia either due to the NA/Euro skew of the first couple levels and instinctively clicked Australia's coast as quickly as possible. Unfortunately taking a screenshot set off the next question or something, so I just said eff the rest of the game. Gonna take a serious shot now after getting to like 5 a couple times quick guessing...
