One pin per clue
Any country that fits the clue can count. The globe shows the name before you commit.
No timer on the daily
Read the clue, spin the globe and change your mind before you drop the pin.
Rarer answers travel further
The obvious country is Common. The one you nearly said might be Farflung.
The rules
How a round works
A round is five clues and five pins. There is no clock on the daily expedition, so the game is about reading the clue carefully rather than typing quickly.
Read the full rules- 01
Read the clue
Each clue describes a country, not a point on the map. “A country where German is an official language” accepts every country where that is true.
- 02
Choose a country
Spin the 3D globe or pick from the list. The name appears before you commit, so you can move the pin.
- 03
Drop the pin
One answer per clue. The game checks the country against the answer list and shows the tier it earned.
- 04
Keep the rarity in mind
Germany is Common for the German clue. Luxembourg is Farflung. Both are correct; only one adds 100 km.
- 05
Reach camp
After the fifth pin, camp shows your total distance and a share card for X, Reddit and friends.
The score
Rarity levels
Every accepted country carries one of five tiers. The tier sets the distance the answer adds, from 40 km to 100 km.
Rarity and scoring explained| Tier | Distance | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Common | 40 km | The answer most players reach for first. |
| Uncommon | 55 km | A second thought, and a better one. |
| Rare | 70 km | A country that takes a little digging. |
| Elusive | 85 km | The answer that makes people look twice. |
| Farflung | 100 km | The gem. The answer almost nobody names. |
A gem is the least obvious accepted answer in a clue. It is usually the Farflung tier, and every prompt has at least one.
