I did pretty well until some of the more obscure places in Africa started showing up. Pretty neat game though, I'll give it a few more cracks.

I did this one before, and made it to like, level 10 (through a little luck, mind you). This time I bombed out at level 6. I don't know Africa nearly well enough.

549,858 points. Got as far as Level 12. Some of the more obscure ones, like in Africa or the Indian Ocean, stumped me. But a fun game nonetheless. Bookmarked.

215,000 here in level 7.

Africa would've saved my arse.

My 8th grade geography midterm exam was to draw Africa freehand and label all the countries, capitals, and major cities.

My 8th grade final was to draw the world in the same manner and label at least 200 places. I labeled 472, and unfortunately, none of these
