Yeah, level 10 with some embarrassing blunders. And of course the map is too small.

I think we have some inflated numbers here.

I thought that I was above average in geography and I only made it to level 6.

My brother e-mailed them and complained about the map. They said they were working of making it bigger.

Now what I am retired I can spend a few days learning the countries of Africa which will help greatly.

Damn, Level 8.
Traveler IQ of 102.
Clearly,what I know about the location of African capitals can be balanced on the head of a pin.

I got to level 11. I agree the map is too small but sometimes that actually helps.

Did OK

I got to level 10, 42K points. Yeah, those African and Micronesian cities are tough. Some of the country names I don't recognize, because they've changed in recent years!

It says my final score was 384K and some change.

Finally broke level 11 with 55625. Now if I can only learn the countries in Africa and in Central Asia. A few island groups wouldn't hurt either.

In Europe there are 5 of the world's smallest countries within a few hundred Ks. Try picking the out on that tiny map.
