Start with the country listed: Andorra. Then, click on a country it borders on the globe. Then click a country that country borders. Repeat until you get all 14 countries that form a continuous chain.
You can enter and leave a country from non-contiguous areas, but overseas territories don't count.
The countries don’t need to be adjacent on the grid.
I was confused for a little then I realized the tiles don’t have to border each other. Honestly, I feel like that way would make a lot more sense. I do love all of your original sudden death ideas though, I have a lot of fun taking them.
Hmmm. That’d make the quiz pretty interesting, but then it’d be hard to pull off and make actually functional. It’d essentially mean you’d always just have a couple choices and you’d just have to pick one or the other.
I accidentally thought the sixth and eighth countries bordered, but I didn't wasn't flagged incorrect for it since I still only clicked correct answers. Not complaining, though.
I feel like I'm missing something - how does Italy border Montenegro or Thailand border Slovenia? Is it an error or am I misunderstanding the instructions?
ooo I see what happened! Like an above commenter, I initially made the silly assumption the countries were also touching within the quiz. So when I got to Italy & none of the countries adjacent to it fit, I picked Montenegro because in my head it was the closest. It counted as correct. THEN I realized the countries didn't have to be touching in the quiz itself and moved along smoothly until I couldn't find anything else that bordered Thailand. I just kept trying different ones until Slovenia, the first one I had skipped earlier.
I'm not sure if there's a way to make it so that people have to click them in the correct order, but if so, that would prevent people accidentally/undeservedly getting full points like I did, haha!
I somehow got all the way to Thailand and messed it up, turned out i skipped Slovenia somehow. 13/14 and i'm baffled on how i messed this one up so royally :D
i literally got into thailand and was like "it borders no other country here", then i finished the quiz and saw that i had to click andorra first ahahah, fuck me
Well, you did make an error, though. Croatia doesn’t border Albania. You had to go through Montenegro to get to Albania. And you have to go through Albania to get to Greece. So you skipped a country in the chain! Those tricky Balkans seem to trip everyone up!
Hats off Dimby :)

It's a neat quiz - thank you!
Since I made no errors to that point, I found it odd that I was supposed to guess at Croatia that I needed NOT to click on Montenegro.
I would prefer that the puzzle be slightly refined to avoid that confusion or need to preplan like that. Otherwise, I love it!!!
