How to play
🎯 Objective
A mystery country appears as a silhouette. Identify it in 6 guesses or fewer.
📏 Distance
After each wrong guess you see how far your guess was from the answer, e.g. 4,820 km — measured between country centers with the Haversine formula.
🧭 Direction
The arrow points from your guess toward the answer. Example: you guess France and see ↗ Northeast → the mystery country is northeast of France.
→ E · ↘ SE
← W · ↖ NW
🔥 Proximity %
0–100 score for how close you are. Labels help: Ice cold → Lukewarm → Warming up → Very close → Burning up. Never rely on color alone — the label always tells you.
🔥 Streaks & XP
Every game is a fresh random country — play unlimited. Win games in a row to grow your 🔥 streak (a loss resets it). Wins earn XP — fewer guesses = more XP — climbing from Explorer to Geography Master. The flag quiz earns XP too.
