To address a few questions repeatedly asked in the comments:

- A landmass is any contiguous piece of land, such as Afro-Eurasia, Borneo, Hispaniola, etc.

- Names as in the Countries of the World quiz are used, so the last letter of the USA is S (United States)

- French Guiana is an overseas department or France, not an overseas territory. Therefore France is on both the landmass of the Americas as well as Afro-Eurasia, while it's continent is still Europe

Hope this helps :)

Originally there was a little bit more explanation but that seems to have been removed once this was featured. The quiz works as follows:

- Type any country. The country will show up in one of 12 colours. Say we type China.

- Use the legend on the bottom left of the svg to see what the colour means. For example, China shows up in yellow, meaning the mystery country is on the landmass of Afro-Eurasia, but not in Asia, doesn't start with C, and doesn't end with A.

- Using that info, we type the next country. Let's say we pick the DR Congo, which shows up in black. This means the mystery country is in Africa, doesn't end with O, but starts with D

- We then pick Djibouti, with which the quiz ends as it was the mystery country :)

They are using the official JetPunk name (I think) so it would just be United States

Although yes, you are right. The official name of the USA according to the USA does end with a.

The continent hint takes precedence over the landmass. Since Haiti and the DR are both in North America, Haiti will indeed show up as red

Thanks! I can see it when it is a bigger country, it's the small ones that are tough to ID. Also, the color looks a lot like the FL & LA color (to my eyes).

Thanks for the fun game

Hmm it should look more like just First Letter when you don't guess it. In any case I'm thinking of turning it grey like when you do guess it, I'll do that some time soon to avoid all the confusion

I love this, but am having troubles with a couple of the colours. I'm colour blind. Is it possible to make the FL and LL more distinct? Just a suggestion, it's pretty hard to navigate, but I understand if it's a lot of work.

i think I'm going crazy, can you please explain this scenario, i guessed china, got me FL and LL, then i guessed sweden, got me the continent, turns out the country was north macedonia, perhaps you used a different name for china, or another name for north macedonia?

May 8, 2023
Hmm China should have been cyan for Last Letter and Landmass then (LL & LA), and it's using China and North Macedonia indeed. I'll check to see if my algorithm did something weird there, thanks for letting me know!

Edit: the code is assigning LL & LA to China for that one, not sure what happened. Sorry for the inconvenience!

I absolutely love this quiz, but the scoring doesn't really make sense at the moment. A win automatically awards you 196/196 or 100% and 5 points, and then you can't improve anymore. It would probably make more sense to base scoring on time or something.
