Just FYI -- the first time I played it, if I typed a two-word name ... North Carolina, e.g. ... the space between the letters didn't appear in the text box, but the answer was accepted anyway. So I started typing without the space ... northcarolina, e.g. ... and that was accepted also ... except for rhode island. The first time I played, it would accept NO variation of Rhode Island. Now that I've reset a few times, it will ONLY take the version with the space (rhode island). Oh, and now the space appears when you type it. ???
@150xFIVE Hi there. Space should appears any time if you type it in the text box. We forgot "rhodeisland" in our exception list but we will add it thanks to your feedback :) Thanks a lot.

@Ocsaleb: Yours is my favorite comment, but as someone mentioned they are separate states. The directions just mean they can combine to form the superstates.

Reminds me of Stack The States for iPhone. Are you planning on adding another with the rest of North America and the Caribbean, and others with Africa, Asia, and Oceania? And maybe when you're done, combine them all to make Guess Countries: Earth? I really like geography and this game is perfect for that.
@walkman01 Hi there. First, thanks for the nice comment. We already have Europe and South America and we are working hard on the next "episodes". We'll try to "finish the world" :)

Does there really need to be separate states for different parts of the same states? For example, North and South Carolina, etc. Couldn't it all just be one state?

Knowing the names is one thing - knowing where they are as another - maybe an option for dragging the name to the right place on the map too
@Alkaru Hi there, at the moment the game is more about quoting them all but we are thinking of adding a drag and drop mode. Thanks for your feedback :)

i knew all the states with the only problem being my spelling, hey here a thought why not add spell check to your game for all the bad spellers out there, myself I'm horrible at spelling

so I had close to 30 states in my head, then I found another 6 or so by using a map with the state abbreviations. I know all of them but it's hard to name them or even point them all out on the map haha

As a European, 37 (I nailed the Europe one without any major issues). TIL that Iowa and Idaho are actually two different states, and not a vague idea of one state with a vaguer idea of spelling.

A great installment, with the improvements to the Europe Quiz included from the start. As a European, past 30 I found it got harder to do looking at the map - I knew some states existed, but didn't know where they were. Could be good to add a 'reverse mode' clicking on named states (or passing) until you get them all. And Nebraska definitely needs to publicise itself more.

Should make 2 modes, 1 where you type it like normal and 1 where you get a word bank and then drag and drop to each blank state (maybe only 1 try per state?)

20/50 - not bad for a guy from Russia. Not ashamed :) Quite sure not so many citizens of USA can name at least 10 cities in Russia, not telling about region names :)

Hint: I found 6 bonus answers. These are not states, but overseas territories owned by the U.S.
SPOILERS BELOW!
District of Columbia, Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa, Puerto Rico, Guam, U.S. Virgin Islands

Again, great job. I think that many people would like to see you continue in the same direction that you headed. You need South and Middle America, Africa, Asia. Also I would suggest combining Australia states with New Zeland and Oceania states(The most difficult of them all) as the final chapter of your game saga :)

I knew them all, but the spelling had me wanting to throw my keyboard. I hate you coneticut, con.. etticut.. conecticut... FFFFUUUUUUUUU.....

Easy to do for people who learned the alphabetical 50 states song in elementary school. :)
Spelling acceptance is a little wonky sometimes. Illinois and North Dakota wouldn't take on the first couple of tries (I think they ended up working when I didn't capitalize them).

Excellent idea to educate the hordes of zombie gamers. Let's have Africa and Asia and, eventually THE WORLD! (and then all the galaxies with all named stars, planets, planetoids and asteroids too)

U.S States? That doesn't even make any sense.. The U.S is a country, so how are we guessing countries? We would be guessing states.
@ApatheticGamer Hi there, we expected this comment. Thing is that we will do several geography quizzes, all will be entitled "Guess Countries" so the players can find them all in the search engine if they want to. In this game, you still play with a country even if it's a single one :)

33 for a european guy on a first try ... not that bad IMO and btw, thanks for accepting states in multiple languages ... it helps a lot !

32/50, I'm surprised I could remember so many (albeit I did have to consult the comments for the spelling of Connecticut and the existence of Delaware). These were the ones I missed: Oregon, Nevada (couldn't spell it), Arizona, Utah, Oklahoma, Missouri, Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Indiana, Illinois, Tennessee, Louisiana, Maryland, New Jersey & Nebraska. I think I recalled most due to media or recent stuff, I mean I don't think anyone missed Washington, Texas, California, Florida or New York but other ones I recalled from lots of news about them or seeing something to do with them recently.

Simple clues like first letter would be nice. I'm not from US, got 21 so far, but I'm sure I know a lot more. They just don't come to my mind. ... The 'not so famous' states.
