You'll have better luck if you go play the game here, though. I can't get the game to fit exactly right on my page, so Alaska, Siberia, and Australia are cut off.
[EDIT] Warning! Highly addictive! Since I started playing this game, all I've thought about are maps, cities, and landmarks oh my! I have two large maps hanging in my apartment and one light-up globe, and they haunt me. I've even come close to obsessively destroying my beloved push-pin map which marks proudly the places I've been by removing said push-pins in a geographic frenzy to better read the small country which plagued me the last time I played.
Maybe they should make this a mandatory game in Elementary classrooms in the US. Make 'em learn through addiction.
Nice game,I have a better luck,but I don't spoil it.Thank you

Yes, absolutely. Grandma always told me, don't spoil your luck.

I played this once a while back...I got level 8 of 12 complete - My total was 249,686. My IQ is 100. I feel this is not too bad for someone that never really leaves the country and doesn't care much at all about "foreign lands" hahaha. I'm american. You figure out where I live hahaha. Tongue
I wish the map was a bit bigger.

When I first started playing I was getting to level 6... I know the US, middle east, and Europe pretty well, but most of Africa, Asia and South and Central America aren't places I know as good as I thought. But thanks to this game I've been boning up... I made it to level 10! I hear that Christy has made it to level 11 though... grr.
Anyway, the places I do know, I know very well; I'm consistently pinning them in less than 50 miles, which on this game, due to the too small size of the map, is pretty good.

that is awesome...damn, some of those were very hard locations were very hard to pinpoint on the map and thus a very humbling experience

I know, right? I mean, I've traveled. Quite a bit. But you know who still got a better score than me? DK that's who. She's good at that stuff though.
Also, I forgot that my shower curtain is also a big world map, so I even study in the shower. And still I can only make it to level 10, on my better days.
