This is really fun and definitely helped me place some countries, especially tiny ones, that I never actually knew the location of. It was a bit frustrating to have to zoom in and out, I wonder if there's some way to do that differently? e.g. Malta doesn't appear when zoomed out to see Iceland?

@petejacobson Thanks! With micronations it's difficult and I do like the idea of having the user zoom in and out because it forces you to learn exactly where the country is. I may change the flashing animation for smaller countries to include a large circle around the country to help users find it if they exceed the incorrect attempts threshold.

I guess what git me was that speed of zooming (or failing to) was stressing me out lol You know how some applications have a default setting and just mousing over it can zoom in, then mousing away returns to default? Might be less awkward? Or might be more aggravating… Regardless, really cool game!

I decided to build a geography quiz website using Mapbox GL JS because all the geography games online have outdated UIs and lack user configurability.

Thank you a lot, time to time it is neccessary to refresh your geography knowledge. I think, it is very useful stuff for the schools. Before presenting gifts, will make children to pass exams through this site :) My first result for Europe was 58% in 4 minutes, means I need to repeat it all myself :D Thank You a lot for this apportunity!

@antonio_muhichello Glad my app is helping you out! I agree, schools would definitely benefit from something like this. I may add a feature to allow teachers to track students progress and scores in the future
