Where in the World?

"Where in the World?" is a geography game that asks players to click on a country's geographic location. The catch? Players are not given the country name, rather, they must uncover both the country and its location in the world based on clues in the "fun fact" provided. For example, players will be prompted to "Find: The country that celebrates the Day of the Dead" in which players must accurately guess Mexico as the country and locate it on the map. A hint option reveals a photo of the country. This game challenges players to use geographical clues in the country facts to establish the region and narrow down potentials. The timer pushes instinct and quick decision making while the streak and point system encourage progress and continuation. Additionally, mascot "Globey" provides feedback through a range of responses, including a happy face when a country is correctly located.
