The Russia thing early on is actually wrong. They placed Moscow over by St Petersburg when it's nowhere NEAR St Petersburg-- it's on the other side of the continent.
I think you need to go take geography lessons again. St Petersburg is the closest big city to Moscow in Russia.

:lol ok. nevermind my bitch about Russia. I've been to Helsinki and was 12 hours from a busride over into St Petersburg to spend a semester. I can recite exactly where Novgorod, Murmansk, Volgograd, etc are and have even spent a semester studying the language, but I'm a complete retard when it comes to placing Moscow on the map. :lol


Saddest thing is I'm a poli sci major, too. Granted I never really studied Eastern Europe outside of Poland, Belarus, etc... but damn. I nailed the SE Asia countries though, and South America and Africa.

But I can't figure out where one of the most infamous capitals in the world is? Fuckin' A. I'm going to bed. :lol
 
113 because I'm bored and tried it once more.
Map is still to small. Giving random Chinese cities is a death sentence.

11 is insane, they give you island territories that are far away from the mother countries. Africa is also pretty brutal.

10 had some insane ones. I have never even heard of Kyrgyzstan.
There are far crazier countries than Kyrgyzstan. I'm guessing they're saving those for the last two levels :P
 
That was really fun! I did pretty good, not as good as other people though. Level 10 got me due to my lack of island knowledge..I guessed halfway across the world from a couple.

It seems weird that I got closer to Brussels than some other really small country areas (like Lesotho).

Thanks for posting this game, VALIS!
 
Stupid time limit, and stupidly small map!

Still, 123 aint bad. I was doing alright on level 11 until they started asking for places in those random island nations, Seychelles and shit.

Final Score: 347,371
Level: 10
Travel iq: 109

My strategy with subsaharan sounding African countries were to just click right in the middle of the east and south Africa.
 
I was about 4 km from some place in Belgium. And, uh, yeah, that's about all I've got that's worth bragging rights.
 
If they would just let me get past level fucking 6, I could easily break 350,000. Bastards.
 
Ahhhh, I always confused Innsbrck as being in Australia, and that screws my score. Innsbruck is such a very aussie name, not something that the Austrians would come up with :lol
 
Got around 350k, made some stupid mistakes, and the map is far too small.
