Around the world
This geography game, the Traveler IQ Challenge, comes via Fimoculous. You can test your knowledge of U.S. capitals, major cities, and world cities and capitals. I did very well on U.S. capitals, fair on world capitals. The goal is to click on a map to identify the location, and the faster you do it, and the closer you get, the more points you score. The difficulty increases with each round of the game. It's pretty addictive - and educational.

Esther, Is it as addictive as Sudoku?

Esther, I'm curious to learn how well you did. I ended up with 435,667 points at the final level of 10 and an traveler IQ of 119. Not sure if that's good or bad, but I feel stupid! I would have done so much better had the map been larger...
Esther, I feel a little better after taking it again. I got up to the 12th level and had 527,704 and an IQ of 128. Still, with me being in the travel industry and all, I should have done better.
But I still think they need to provide a bigger map!
Oh Steve, you did much, much better than me - like five times better! But you know, I'm really just getting warmed up. And you are most definitely not stupid. Suddenly, I'm a lot less confident of my ability to beat you at Trivial Pursuit! And yes, the map is way too small!
Hi Amy!
I've never played Sudoku, so I don't know. But I don't think it'll become nearly as popular. Still, it's fun!
