First, choose any state by entering its abbreviation followed by a ‘1’ or a ‘2’ – i.e. ‘CA1’ or ‘FL2’. 1 refers to the easier level (larger squares) while 2 refers to the harder level (smaller squares). Then, name any city in that state to start with by entering it (cities with the same name will choose the largest city of that name first). The grid square you are starting in will turn yellow – you now must name any city in any one of the adjacent grid squares (not including diagonal) – so any grid square directly north, south, east or west of the yellow one. Naming a city in one of these squares will turn your original square red and the current newly named city square yellow – continue in the same way trying to make a path of as many squares as you can. You are not allowed to return to a red square, and if you get ‘boxed in’ with no squares left to complete the quiz will also end.

Grid squares will be 0.5 degrees for level 1 and 0.25 degrees for level 2, but larger for AK, CA and TX.

Please note, as you name cities it will answer the largest city first, so if you are trying to answer a city in a square to the east but a larger city of that name occurs a square to the north, the north one will be answered.

Obviously, due to the layout and separation of squares it will be impossible to complete all of them.
