How to play

Round 1: the word

Guess the five-letter word in 6 tries. After each guess the flaps turn to show how close you are.

  • P is in the word and in the right spot.
  • N is in the word but in a different spot.
  • The grey letters are not in the word.

Round 2: the map

Every answer belongs to one country. Find it on the map: tap a country (pinch or scroll to zoom) or search by name. You have 4 tries.

Each miss only tells you how warm you are. Ice cold is the far side of the world; boiling means you are next door or share a border. No distances, no directions.

  1. Ice cold
  2. Cold
  3. Warm
  4. Hot
  5. Boiling

Miss the word and it is revealed, so you can still play the map.

Hard mode

Letters you have found must be used in every later guess. The map gives you 3 tries instead of 4.
