About Continent Quiz
This is the fastest game on the site and the best place to start if geography is new to you. Six possible answers, no memorisation of names required, and it builds the mental map that every other game hangs off.
The awkward cases are the ones that straddle a boundary. Russia and Turkey span Europe and Asia; this site places Russia in Europe and Turkey in Asia, following the most common convention. Cyprus, Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan are counted as Asia. Central America and the Caribbean sit under North America, which surprises a lot of players.
Egypt has territory on both sides of the Suez Canal and is counted as Africa throughout.
Difficulty and scoring
Easy, Medium and Hard run thirty questions. Easy covers the countries most people can already name; Hard reaches the ones that need real study. A correct answer is worth 100 points, with a bonus for answering inside five seconds and further bonuses at three, five and ten in a row. A wrong answer scores nothing and resets the streak, but never ends the round.
Expert is different. It has no fixed length and no second chances: questions keep coming from the hardest pool until you get one wrong, and that ends the run immediately. Your result is how many you survived. The full scoring breakdown is on the about page.
