Click START to begin - then fill in the 100 squares with World countries (see NAMING NOTE below) based on the categories in the rows and cells. For example, if you are looking at a cell with 'Asia' in its row, and 'Starts With A' in the column, that cell can be filled in with 'Armenia.' Many shortened names of countries are accepted, such as DRC, CAR, UAE, UK, US, etc. Answering a country which doesn't fit in any remaining unanswered cell will end the quiz.
Occasionally a cell may not have a qualifying answer, in which case it will appear blank and be a gimme. After completing the quiz you can simply click RESTART to play again.
Please note that 'star on flag' does not include a representation of the Sun.
Scoring is based on 100 points for each correct (or blank) square, and 5 points are subtracted for every second used on the quiz. So you are rewarded for getting squares quickly, however be careful as not to name a country which doesn't qualify for an open cell.
NAMING NOTE: You must type a '.' (period) after a country name or abbreviation to submit it, to prevent entering a country you don't want to (i.e. Guinea when you want to enter Guinea Bissau). For country naming purposes, the following names are used: Cote d'Ivoire, Timor-Leste.

I guess adding some spelling alternatives for russian cities would be nice… I have to google multiple times to look for the english spelling (like voronez is voronezh?), which is annoying
I’d love to see this quiz have it’s latitude limit adjusted to 45 degrees North, as right now, 98% of all the cities are in Europe, and dropping the southern limit to 45 degrees North would throw in quite a few cities in the USA, over 75% of the qualifying cities in Canada and a big chunk of the northern Orient.
Completely agree, Ovamiat. Right now it’s a “how many cities can you name is Russia” quiz
