Try to guess the most common words in the English language. You will fail and then kick yourself.
When you guess a country, all the countries it borders will also be completed. Can you fill in the world map in just 90 seconds?
Difficulty level: impossible and mean-spirited. Can you guess these countries based on a partial view of their flag?
Drag the flag onto the correct state. Careful, though! One wrong move and the game ends.

I am a big fan of your carefully crafted quizzes, lots of deeply buried lore to bring out for sure! Could you please consider adding Glaurung and Smaug as valid answers for "The Golden"? Or maybe make them three separate answers :)

Thank you :) Yes, there definitely is! I love making quizzes that are anything to do with Middle Earth.

Sure, I've added Smaug and Glaurung as answers now :)
