Final Score: 496,925
Level: 11
Traveler IQ: 125
Island territories did me in.
Tiny map made things a bit tough. Closest hit was the capital of Brunei.... 2 km.

I only got to Level 10 
The countries in Africa were really easy for me, it was the islands in the South Pacific that messed me up. I had a general idea of where they all were but I didn't come close enough to make the game happy.

ha I sucked at this game.
I'm a history teacher, and because of that I had to take a lot of geography classes but even so I wasn't ever good at this game.

the thing that sucks about the world geography test is that the map is tiny, and you can barely see some of the countries, and no small islands.

you coudlnt point out japan or canada? wtf!?
I didnt do great on this, but it was a fun game. Its sad though I bet the average american gets somewhere around 50k points total. I know a lot of people who couldnt point out germany on a blank map.

Level 8, 279k....
This game is bogus.... I should be allowed to take a test on the map that I learned in school... that was BEFORE all those crappy little (former Soviet Union,/Czech/Yugoslavia) countries popped up. Honestly...
