Worldle
A nice twist on Wordle - guess the country based on distance away from last guess
Not sure how much longevity it will have, but I’ll give it a few goes #Worldle #16 4/6 🟩🟩🟩🟩⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 https://worldle.teuteuf.fr

I've been studying geography for a while for trivia; got today's in 1. The distance clues might be interesting though. I have not as great a grasp on scale.

That sounds familiar. Yesterday's (#16) one was a direct hit for me, which wasn't fun at all for the first try with a new game. Today's (#17) was more challenging (for me, took me 5 guesses) and I have to admit that although I usually know where countries are located relative to one another, the ability to guess distances is not yet part of my geographical knowledge. And I expect it's harder to get used to given that distances are very different for countries closer to the North Pole compared to those located on the equator.

You have the options to rotate / remove the country image if too easy. I’ve gone with rotated, and it thoroughly confused me today!

Another fail.
Like yesterday I was next door, but this is proving what I suspected - my knowledge of exact locations of countries isn’t great

I'm so trash at this and it isn't funny. And I got an A in world geography somewhat recently. this last one, I guessed every country around it except for the actual country.

Today was brutal for sure. Got in the right area after 2, but beyond that just complete guesswork.

I'm waiting for USA.
Although I will say the scale today threw me off and it took a second guess.

Today's country looks like a female goose dressed up for an appearance on The Gilded Age.

I stopped doing this after some atol showed up that felt to me too obscure to be guessable.

Yeah, it took me five guesses to get BIOT. Have had a much better time with just about all of the others. It's those islands that are a bitch.

I don't mind island nations, but when they're going to put every single island on the planet earth in their game, I won't be able to play unless I use a map or globe to help me out. Which to me feels cheating in this particular game.

Usually takes me 4-6 chances if I even get it right. My 7 year old has yet to take more than 2 guesses.
