Jun 6, 2016

True. And there are copyright issues if you steal someone else's photos. The truth is, it requires a basic knowledge of HTML, which I'd wager many on this site don't know it/ don't know it's on Jetpunk.

...can we have a version with a world map? so we can see what we haven't guessed yet!

Level 47

May 5, 2016

um, but surely the map would really help with guessing which country the shape is... like the map would give away most of the answers.

+2

Level 75

May 7, 2016

it'd be much easier but it'd be good for learning - and once you've mastered the map version you can attempt the mapless one

There is a world map version. It's called Countries of the wprld

Level 59

Jun 1, 2019

maybe an empty world map? though, I got 193, and a map wouldn't really help for Andorra, Tonga, or Dominica.

Level 67

Mar 25, 2020

I don't see the problem if you use an empty map (and it didnt even occur to me that he could have meant a filled in map which just highlights. And am surprised that is what you assumed )

Level 75

May 5, 2016

186... almost there! missed Lesotho, South Sudan and Suriname

+2

Level 75

May 7, 2016

made it! but I wonder how much just shuffling them around would make it harder for me, having them always in the same order certainly helped me. thanks again for a great quiz!

+3

Level 46

May 15, 2019

I only got Lesotho by looking at the shape of the hole in South Africa on my first try. Based on that, I am kind of surprised the percent correct is only 8% as of 5/15/19.

Thanks! Gald you enjoyed it! The countries I left out were Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Nauru, Tonga, Tuvalu and Vanuatu

+8

Level 75

May 11, 2016

Maybe mention that in the top? I kept guessing some of these for the islands. Also, I was really looking for the Galapagos Islands to guide me to Ecuador. Consider including them?

+1

Level 65

May 11, 2016

Also, congratulations on feature!

+1

Level 75

May 11, 2016

Nauru's just one island so you could probably throw that one in, and Tonga and Vanuatu would both show unique footprints, as long as you leave out the most far-flung islands.

+1

Level 47

May 12, 2016

Yeah I might try and add some of them later, but I know that Micronesia and Kiribati definitely are too wide. But I haven't got much time at the moment, so unfortunately you'll have to wait :(

Level 73

May 12, 2016

Great Job. Epic. Just wondering (and fishing for clues to get a better score!), is there any particular order? It certainly seems like most of the easier ones are nearer the start, but have you grouped them in any way?

+2

Level 47

May 12, 2016

Great question! I actually made the order based on the 'compactness/roundess' of the country. Basically the coastline plus border length divided by how long they should be if the country was a perfect circle. I then took out the more obvious answers and put them first and mixed up the small islands ones, like Maldives, Cape Verde, Bahamas etc.

+4

Level 47

May 12, 2016

But if you do want to get a better score, I have made 5 smaller versions for the individual continents...

and

Level 73

Phhh! That sounds a lot more complicated than i was expecting! And not much aid to me getting a better score either! But I will definitely check out the continental ones. Thanks.

Yes, Armenia is really pretty. Finland is actually a woman as well, although with a skirt on and from the front. Denmark is an old man in profile and there's some snot dripping from his nose (or Jutland at least is). Need to learn the others still.

Jul 29, 2016

Great idea but on my ipad the page jumps back to the top everytime you enter a correct answer meaning you spend forever scrolling back down. It makes the quiz incredibly frustrating and i gave up after about 20. No fault of the QM, it's either my ipad or the jetpunk site. Annoying though.

Aug 13, 2016

Excellent quiz. This one is definitely one of my favourites.

Is it possible to randomize the order of the countries each time you take the quiz? I have taken it a few times and sometimes I recognize a country simply because I remember its position within the quiz from previous attempts. This can give someone an unfair advantage and order randomization will make it a LOT more challenging. :-)

Thank you

Missed Dominica, Honduras, and Vatican City.

On another note, Kiribati's outline doesn't seem quite right. Did you cut off most of the other islands and instead just decide to put Tarawa on there?

+1

Level 66

Jul 30, 2017

196/196 first try, I got East Timor with 0:22 left :)

By the way, I have just one objection: Kiribati's shape is wrong, rather it should look like Micronesia and Marshall Islands, quite "invisible" indeed.

It took me several times; finally did 'em all with :57 left. Now can do all regularly with a few minutes to spare. Great quiz! Wish you all could mix up the order. Make it more challenging, especially the little ones at the end--I have the order memorized where I don't have to study the shape. And maybe list the ones not guessed yet. With some quizzes if I forget one, either the map isn't lit up or there's a blank space among those listed alphabetically. That said, great quiz!

You should change the shape of Mauritius to just the main island (the big one seen in the bottom left). When people talk about Mauritius they always refer to the main island, the other islands are more like territories part of the country (kinda like the USA with Hawaii/Alaska or the UK with all its pacific and Atlantic territories, everyone referes to the British Islands when speaking of the UK). I live in Mauritius and I struggled to find it lmaoooo

Part of what helps me is it's always in the same order. Maybe use random order to make it tougher and/or list the countries once guessed correctly to make it easier.

Someone definitely needs to create a randomized version of this quiz to increase the difficulty level (and make sure people actually know the shape, and not just the order).
