Well... the path to success is a one-way trip through Central America.

It works on number of borders away from France. I got all 11 levels without naming any Central American countries. I named mostly African countries... The one surety is you have to guess Lesotho! ;)

+12

Level 72

Nov 4, 2025

You don't have to name any in Central America. But those countries only have one other possible border, making them optimal for a quick time, or just completing the quiz.

If you survive the Darién Gap.

Nah I bypassed that, Panama and Colombia were guessed before I got there. I just took a plane from Chile.

Level 73

Extremely good idea!

Completed 3 times in the time allowed, but I still cant figure out how USA borders Namibia!

Think a bit harder and I'll bet you'll figure it out.

I wonder which two countries would be the furthest away from each other in this way? I'm thinking Lesotho and Canada but not sure if you get between those through a country other than France

Definitely Canada and Lesotho since the only connection between the continents is through France.

Level 73

Nov 11, 2025

It's a remarkable number of steps!!

Level 58

Nov 11, 2025

Hmm...what about Papua New Guinea to Canada though...

Level 74

Nov 11, 2025

Per the quiz, PNG to France is 9 steps, and Lesotho to France is 11 steps.

Level 55

Nov 12, 2025

It's not. Canada borders Denmark on Hans Island. Of course,it depends on what oversees territories you may or may not be including.

Level 58

Jan 5, 2026

Overseas territories are not counted as a standard on Jetpunk.

Level 94

Nov 11, 2025

And the funny thing is France and Canada are only like 2 miles apart if going from the closest spot in Newfoundland (Green Island) to St Pierre and Miquelon (Grand Colombier)

Level 75

This one is a silly quiz...

Great quiz!

France, The Center of the World. I like it :D

Level 76

Nov 5, 2025

Easy but very fun idea. Would be tons harder without a map.

Level 63

Nov 5, 2025

I liked this quiz, but it was quite easy. An idea for a variation of this would be that you have to name all countries that borders, before you can move on to the next ring and so on.

Level 65

Nov 8, 2025

Yes, would be good but would also change it from a quick 20-second quiz to a several-minute quiz

Level 60

Nov 5, 2025

i don't know what path i took but it was really fun

Level 76

Nov 8, 2025

All roads lead to Lesotho

Level 68

Nov 8, 2025

Completed it on the first try, but don't grasp how it works.

Level 68

Nov 11, 2025

All this goes to show that Lesotho ultimately concentrically encircles all others

Level 50

Nov 11, 2025

I answered southafrica but it didn't marked Lesotho and I missed that only..why?

Level 70

Nov 11, 2025

Because it doesn't border the previous rings of countries that South Africa borders. If you watch the map, it's clear that answering South Africa won't give you Lesotho as one borders Namibia/Botswana/Zambia etc. and one doesn't. Lesotho was my last answer.

well i didnt understand it all but i still got 11/11

Level 50

Nov 11, 2025

Shouldn't the UK and Ireland get filled in thanks to Spain bordering Gibraltar? Fun quiz either way (could also be fun without a map to make it a bit trickier)

Level 79

Nov 11, 2025

Territories aren’t included, as you can tell because the Netherlands doesn’t show up for the first ring

Level 72

Nov 11, 2025

Is this our “six degrees of separations” for countries?

Level 47

Nov 11, 2025

Denmark borders Canada via Hans Island in Greenland

Level 68

Nov 11, 2025

Very cool idea ! Central America is an easy way to the top

Level 57

Nov 11, 2025

For France, evidentially level 5 has the most countries in it. I wonder what country has the most countries in one of their levels?

Level 51

Nov 11, 2025

A potentially fun quiz ruined by a short time limit. Should be at least triple if playing on a cell phone.

This is very fun, I would love more :)

The most efficient path (with the fewest letters), as far as I can tell:

Spain/Italy, Guyana, DRPK, ROK, CAR, KSA, UAE, USA, Canada, Lesotho

Level 75

Peru is shorter than Guyana.

The only country in the Americas I had to guess was Canada. I didn't name a single country in Africa except Lesotho. I just went through Europe and the Middle East until I was basically done... finished in 34 seconds

But what about Hans Island???

Not a real border!

Level 70

Jan 28, 2026

not a real border? It clearly exists. There is a border between Canada and Greenland. Just because its not between two sovereign states doesn't mean its a "fake" border. Would you say the border between England and Wales isn't a "real" border?

Level 61

Mar 5, 2026

Yes.

Level 33

Go through African countries

Level 39

Love this concept!! Please create more like these :)

Level 67

Nov 15, 2025

So as France has the only bridge over the Atlantic, it makes Canada and Lesotho the countries furthest apart from each other with 21 steps.

Level 36

Nov 17, 2025

screw you Lesotho

Level 47

Damn, 9 sec, I'm sure someone was faster though.

NO IT DOES NOT.

Level 68

Mar 21, 2026

Canada borders the Danish Realm, of the Kingdom of Denmark, which of course includes the Faroe Islands and Greenland. There are plenty of comments restating the same, "Hans Island" stuff. Unfortunately for everyone, overseas territories aren't a standard for JetPunk. And no, French Guiana and Ceuta/Melilla aren't territories.

Level 29

Jan 1, 2026

I am confused as a lot of the countries that appear did not border the country just guessed.
