How to Play

The basics

  1. From the home screen, tap any game tile to start.
  2. Answer the questions — tap a choice, or press 14 on a keyboard.
  3. Most games give more points for answering quickly and for getting a streak right.
  4. Beat your best score — top scores are saved on each game’s leaderboard (just on this device).

How points work

  • Speed — timed games (Flag Frenzy) give more for a fast right answer.
  • Streaks — getting several right in a row adds a bonus in most games.
  • Fewer clues — in Trivia, guessing on clue 1 scores 150, clue 2 is 100, clue 3 is 60.
  • Partial credit — Border Patrol gives points for each correct tile and takes a little off for wrong ones.
  • A round with 0 points isn’t saved to the leaderboard.

Pass & Play

One device, taking turns. Choose 2–4 players and a countryball for each, pick a game, then pass the device around when it says so. Everyone gets the same questions — fairest wins.

Online Play

One person taps Host a game and reads out the three flags shown (the room code). Everyone else taps Join a game and taps those three flags. When two or more have joined, the host starts and you all race the same round.

No accounts, no chat, no typing names — just countryballs. Games you can play together: Flag Frenzy, Capitals, Trivia, Fast Facts and Outline Ops.

The games

  • Flag Frenzy A flag pops up — tap the country it belongs to before the timer runs out. Faster = more points. (Turn on Relaxed timing in settings to drop the clock.)
  • Country War A top-trumps card duel. Pick the stat where your country is strongest and beat the CPU.
  • Capitals Quiz Name the capital city — tap one of four, or type it.
  • Outline Ops Just the country’s shape (its silhouette). Work out which country it is.
  • Fast Facts A rapid mix — match a currency or a language to the country it belongs to.
  • Invasion Mode Pick a continent and conquer it. Answer geography questions to capture each country.
  • Border Patrol A country is shown — tap ALL the countries that touch its borders.
  • Bigger or Smaller Two countries; call which is bigger. Keep a streak going.
  • Guess Who The computer hides a secret country. Ask up to 20 yes/no questions — about size, flags, colours and more — to crack it.
  • History Hunt Flags of countries that don’t exist any more, with a little story for each.
  • Trivia Read up to three clues about a mystery country and guess it. Fewer clues used = more points.

Settings

Tap the cog (top-right) for settings: sound on/off, sound style, and accessibility options like larger text, high contrast and Relaxed timing. Your choices are remembered on this device.
