Farflung | Explore the World 

How well do you really know the world map? Farflung is a daily geography trivia game where you identify countries, place pins, and earn distance based on how unusual your answers are. Like Krillion, it turns geographical knowledge into a quick, engaging challenge, but this puzzle game adds a distinctive rarity-based scoring system that rewards less obvious choices.

Each expedition presents five prompts covering countries, capitals, borders, languages, and other geographical facts. You explore an interactive map featuring 195 countries, select an answer that matches each clue, and try to complete a perfect 500-kilometre journey. With both daily challenges and unlimited play, there's always another destination to discover.

How the Five-Pin Expedition Works

Every expedition consists of five rounds, with one geography prompt per round.

Read the clue, locate a suitable country on the unlabeled world map or use the country search, then press Drop Pin to confirm your choice. You have only one attempt per prompt.

Several countries may be correct, but their scores differ according to five fixed rarity tiers:

Rarity Reward

Distance Earned

Tier 1

40 km

Tier 2

55 km

Tier 3

70 km

Tier 4

85 km

Tier 5

100 km

A correct answer earns its assigned distance, while an incorrect answer, skip, or timeout earns zero. Five 100-km answers produce the maximum 500 km.

Daily, Unlimited, Classic, and Wander Modes

This trivia game offers two expedition options and two timer settings:

  • Daily: Everyone receives the same five prompts, refreshed at midnight UTC.
  • Unlimited: Play additional expeditions without waiting for the next daily puzzle.
