Farflung

Farflung is a geography trivia game where players can explore the world by answering questions about countries, languages, capitals, flags, and interesting geographical features. Instead of just choosing the most obvious answer, the game gives you a higher score for choosing less obvious countries.

There are 5 questions per Daily Expedition, same for all players that day, with a maximum possible score of 500 km. Or, you could pick "Unlimited" to play forever, or "Wander" to explore the map at your own speed without any rush.

How to Play Farflung

Read the question and select a country

Each question offers a clue, such as asking you to name a country where German is an official language. You have to find a suitable country and drop a pin on the map. There might be more than one correct answer, but the rarer the country you choose, the more points you get.

Place your pin and score points

Tap the map to place your pin, adjust its position if necessary, and select "Drop Pin" to confirm. You only have one attempt per question. In "Classic" mode, you have 60 seconds to answer each question.

Points are awarded based on the rarity of your chosen answer: Common (+40 km), Uncommon (+55 km), Rare (+70 km), Elusive (+85 km), and Farflung (+100 km). Incorrect answers earn no points, so aim for choices that are both accurate and rare.

Tips for mastering Farflung

  • Think outside the box: Try to find less well known countries that still fit the given clues.
  • Expand your horizons : Learn official languages, capitals and special territories.
  • Check your pin again: Before you confirm make sure your pin is in the right country.
