I'm an American, and I believe we are not taught geography in school enough. There needs to be more emphasis on Eastern Europe, most of Asia, and South America.

i have been a year in alabama and i do know that americans do not know geography.... some guy thought that germany is the capital of europe and the capital of england is new england and stuff like that, most of the southern rednecks do not even know the continents

Theogladius, nobodies race is perfect, infact we all have flaws, although it is a stereotype, one should not be offended by it as it is a joke.

Fun game, though I get frustrated when western Chinese cities come up, that and Chile / Brazil. The large nations and cities I don't know make it tricky. Also, the perception that Americans don't know the world map very well is kind of offensive, but hey, believe what you will, your prejudice and ignorance amuse me.

It just feels so small, and it's distorted differently than my globe was when I was little, both make it hard to be exact on this map, but other than that it was good. Perhaps there should be a longitude/latitude type set up to make it easier to discern the differences in map distortion. :3

THEY AREN'T TYPOS. look it up. South Afrika is not supposed to be South Africa. it's a different thing. i only came across two typos: "od" instead of "of" and and "a" instead of an "o". so stop complaining about your shoddy spelling skills? kaythanks.

Tall5001 - the developer is from Munich...thus one would assume German is his/her first language. Feel free to have a guess how 'Africa' translates into German...

The spelling error's aren't really game-changing. Annoying, maybe. If you know the city/country/state, then you should be able to recognize it. If you don't, you probably don't know anyways.

Pretty good game, I feel like i learned quite a bit but getting through level 7 to 10 was based on luck. Strikes also always seemed a bit random even when you knew the exact location.

I agree with Wolfimoon that this game desperately needs a zoom feature. Some of the time its stupidly hard to click the right area because 20km is like a few millimetres on the screen.
Also it seems like 1/4 of all the places are in the USA and Canada ... maybe add in a few more from eastern Europe and the far east since they rarely come up ... I haven't gotten a Russian city that isn't in western Russia for example.
I gave this a 4/5 though since it is actually quite fun when your not being punished for not getting the cursor perfectly on a place even when you know where it is.
