Type 'easy' or 'hard' to begin the quiz. Easy is a 15-degree grid, hard is a 10-degree grid. Then, try to name the largest 50K+ cities in each square IN ORDER. To name a city, you must first click on the grid square to make it have a GREEN border. Then, type in the city answer for that square followed by a '.' (a period).
The squares will start with '0/5' (or maybe fewer cities if less exist in that square). Click on a square and enter the largest city in that square not yet answered (so, the largest city if you have yet to answer a city in that square). You will then have '1/5' and need to click on that square to name the 2nd largest city, and so on until you complete all the cities up to 5 (or less if less exist). If you name an incorrect city in a square it becomes 'locked' and turns red and you can no longer accumulate cities in that square.
You receive 1 point for the largest city in a square, 2 for the 2nd largest, and so on.
At the end of the quiz the largest remaining city you haven't named will be shown in each square.
I hadn’t heard that Equatorial Guinea has a new capital. So when the name came up, you all know where I clicked.
I got Brazzaville immediately after Kinshasa… nice!
Hardest ones are the small random African and European countries.
I had most trouble with Pacific nations as it was not always clear on which island the capital is located.
Hardest capitals for me :
-Juba of South Sudan
Palikir of FS of Micronesia
This reminds me a lot of Globetrotter XL. I’d love more games like this, with other cities.
Would it be possible to add an average points per city score/leaderboard too?
no sorry, just total. you’d have to divide by 197 to get average.
