Find Country on Map Game

Last Updated 23rd June 2009

How to Play

Find Country on Map is a simple game in which you have to click on a map to locate a country. Read the instructions below the map and when asked to find a country you should click on the map where that country is. If you get the answer correct you will then be asked to find another country. Every time you get a country correct you get 1 point.

You can always pan and zoom the map to make finding an accurate place to click more easy.

When you get one wrong or when you complete the game, you will be able to enter you name into the high score list.

Click on restart game at any time to start again from the beginning.

Difficulty Ranking

This game will record every time someone gets an answer right or wrong. By totaling up these values, it can then be determined which country's are generally harder to find than others. Then, when someone else comes along to play the game they will be presented with easier country's first, and as the game proceeds the countries will get more difficult to find.

Therefore over time this game will have a better difficulty curve that will score players in a fairer way.

I think bodies of water should be labeled. I lost on Kazakhstan (#24) because I couldn't tell which sea was the caspian.

confirm, flag of albania blocks bosnia-h, secondly, the fact that also for me bosnia came after albania means that the sequence seems not random influencing results

Great game... Borders of countries should be more clear though

good fun

Lots of fun! I could spend way too much time here...but it makes one review their geography knowledge, or learn it if they didn't know it before. Thanks

Can't click on Bosnia and Herzegovina... the flag from Albania blocks it

Western Sahara has been fixed by the author!
By Brock on 13/02/2009
Great game for learning countries by their location, until you hit Western Sahara, which registers as water, not as a country. This is regardless of where you click correctly. I pulled up google maps side by side and followed the entire outline of Western Sahara and it says try again every time. Fortunately, the structure of the game pushes Western Sahara further and further down the queue as you guess "wrong", so right now it's at 144 (until next time).

I have tried my best. My eyes really hurt now.
By Try to beat that :) on 21/12/2008
Although I have tried Western Africa 3 times now and can't seem to get it right. Despite getting it exactly right. Hence I have 32 3 times now. Can you check to see why it doesn't work?? thanks,
On 18/12/2008
Great game, learnt lots about countries. If you get it wrong check on google maps and you'll often find your still clicking on the country next door :P
