Same. I think I would've gotten there with another minute or so to think. I kept repeating "Rambosaw" with the emphasis on different syllables to see if I was missing something.

Naypyidaw sounds like 'neigh-pee-door', so it could be something like a door with a horse's head, and urinating 🤪

In the UK, Moscow isn’t pronounced with a cow sound, it’s like the Co in CostCo, so I flubbed that one

My another new favourite quiz. The artwork is amazing (●♡∀♡) though it must have been very difficult to think about it and draw. We appreciate your hardwork and are grateful for providing us with such an amazing quiz to experience which would make us think outside box merely not just memorising all the Capitals won't work. Thanks a lot (。•̀ᴗ-)✧ and keep it up

Does anyone see a man in the hamster one? He has blue hair and a wrinkly sweater, a little mustache and reading glasses below his eyes. Kinda looks like an Albert Einstein type.
