Got 101. Gothenburg should definitely be accepted. The least guessed ones I got were Jurmāla and Reykjanesbær. Embarrassingly missed Bologna and Lille.

Level 78

Gothenburg is now accepted

Nice quiz. The only problem is when you zoom in, the circles don't become smaller. (eg: if I zoom into Belgium)

Level 65

I was also surprised not to see Valletta.

Level 99

Jun 16, 2020

According your source there are bigger cities missing for Malta

Level 57

Mar 4, 2026

surprised to see your comment ill be honest

Level 68

Sep 29, 2020

From what I have gathered, you have applied basically zero type-ins which makes it impossible to get many cities, as well as typos like Baranovichi being spelled wrong. Please add more.

Level 78

Sep 29, 2020

Some type-ins were added, also Belarussian cities have many alternate spellings, one of which was used here

Level 71

Dec 22, 2020

Seville is spelt as Sevilla. and Seville isn't accepted as type-in if this is intentional.

Level 70

Where is Liechtenstein?

Level 78

Jan 5, 2021

The description says that only cities with more than 10,000 are included. Vaduz and Schaan are both under 7,000

Level 79

Nov 30, 2021

I think Kilkenny is missing for Ireland. Your source lists it at 26,512.

Level 65

Nov 30, 2021

Would be very nice to have this same quiz but only for the 10 largest urban areas per country, otherwise you end up having to know suburbs of large cities instead of the actual largest cities per country (e.g. all those cities in Malta instead of just Valletta).

Level 92

Nov 30, 2021

Absolutely this.

Level 69

Jan 27, 2025

Alternate name: "Do you know the nine largest suburbs of Athens?"

Level 78

Level 79

Nov 30, 2021

Maybe add Keflavik as a type-in for Reykjanesbær? It's the more common name for it and I always have trouble remembering the official one.

Level 62

Thanks for putting this together. "Naas" was my obscurest one, but I only remember the name because it's so weird-looking.

Can you accept "Vitsebsk" for Vitebsk?

If you not speak hungarian, I'd wager spelling the last four hungarian cities is bit of a challenge.

Level 54

How is Malta’s capital city not on this? Valletta

Level 61

Feb 15, 2025

Zaporizhzhia is misspelled, could accept some type-ins for Ceske Budejowice & Kryvyi Rih

Level 46

Valletta is less than 10k and is also not in the top 10 biggest cities in Malta.

Nice quiz! There's a mistake in the population number for Łódź, Poland - it should be 685k, not 285k

Level 45

Apr 15, 2026

235/394 , the most obscure I got was the suburbs of Athens and the Maltese ones , and the most obvious I missed was some Polish and Russian cities, I enjoyed this a lot , I agree with others that it should've been urban areas but the issue is they are not always clearly defined...

Level 39

Apr 18, 2026

295/394=75%; beats or equals 95.1% ;)

The following names should be accepted however:

Koeln (for Koeln, Germany)

Zuerich (for Zuerich, Switzerland)

Kryvyy Rih (for Kryvyi Rih, Ukraine)

Mahiliou (for Mogilev/Mahiliou, Belarus)

Bucuresti (for Bucharest, Romania)

Shtip (for Stip/Shtip, Macedonia)
