How Well Do You Know Your World game
November 20th, 2007 at 06:05pmCame across this fun little game that combines geographic knowledge and a little speed:
How Well Do You Know Your World
It’s pretty random so you can play through a few times and still get fresh locations. On my third try through I got to level 10 of 12 with a score of 390,828. How well do you know your world?

After a couple tries I maxed out at level 5 or 6 with around 150k points. They gotta throw in a few Africa cities and Pacific Islands to screw me up!

Level 11 is almost impossible, need 50k points to move on and all the locations are in Africa or somewhere equally obscure.

the game is called how well do you know your world. the world, being the earth as an entity. so, equally obscure as in not america? or equally obscure as a white supremacist’s black-people joke? just kickin in open doors… peace & love!

You’re right Sander. The news coming out of Sudan is big time stuff. It’s always in the headlines right there with the European Union and the United States.
Everyone is equal, and all cities and places on the map are the exact same. Everyone is important!

I bet the average American can’t name 50 African countries and I bet the average African can’t name 50 US States. I’d say we’re about even. Hell I don’t even know all of our state capitals so it is more a knock against my own knowledge of world geography. If I was ever on Jeopardy I’d be screwed. I’d be uber-screwed if I got to the last round on Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego and Africa got picked for the “put the flag on the country” game. And that reminds me, ROCKAPELLA!!!

I scored 538.791 points reaching level 12. Had to train really hard for levels 10 and 11..

Nice work Frerik, i have been playing on and off for a couple of weeks and can’t seem to get past level 11…missed it by 3,000 points last time because they kept giving me random cities in central russia.
On a positive note, i feel like i have learned more about world geography over the past few weeks than in the rest of my life combined

Well I get into level 11 but to get into level 12 is almost impossible.

I have reached up to number eleven I find the old soviet states difficult e.g. Kazastan,
