Claustral Meridian

A geography quiz that runs on a single gesture. A question appears — a country's name, its flag or its capital, depending on the mode you choose. Then the planet shows up behind it, and the camera starts closing in on the region where the answer is. It never quite gets there: it stops somewhere around it, and it never tells you which one. The longer you wait, the more you see — and the less the round pays. There is no time bar, because the globe is the clock. You answer with one tap on the country. No multiple choice, no typing, no lists of options: nothing between your finger and the map. TODAY'S CHALLENGE Twenty questions, the same twenty for everyone, in the same order. It changes at midnight, so today's score is today's. CLOSE COUNTS Not knowing exactly where a country is, but knowing roughly where it is, pays too. Tap near it and you collect part of the prize; the further off, the less you get. Three mistakes end the run. AFTERWARDS A review of the game: where each country actually was, its flag, its capital, three of its cities, and the spot you tapped. Touch any of them and the globe flies there. RANKING Two tables: today's, with everyone's daily challenge, and all time, with your best game. No account and nothing to type: the game gives you a name.
