nice! maybe the code could be just numbers so that guessing is easier. The code below the last category can be removed I guess

As I had no idea about the seven summits, I completed the last two categories by typing random countries until I found the topic.

Puncak Jaya is not one of the 7 summits

It is under the Reinhold Messner definition.

There is no universally-agreed-upon standard, but rather there are a half dozen or so different definitions of "Seven Summits." With considerable overlap, but a few differences.

One of them (the Messner version) is absolutely the one used here.

I suppose the quiz setter could include a note to this effect, but in any case it's IMHO not unreasonable to expect quiz takers to be aware of (some of) the different variants. I myself tried Kosciuszko first, and when that didn't take, figured it was one of the ones with Puncak Jaya and went there next.

I would make the final code somehow visibly different from the rest because there's no real indication that you've completed the last one. Anyway, nice quiz!

Carstenz Pyramid should also be accepted for Puncak Jaya

Fun idea! It would be nice if Mount Kosciuszko was accepted for the 7 summits since some definitions include that instead of Puncak Jaya. Also please accept Carstensz Pyramid as an alternate name for Puncak Jaya.
