Photography one is fun but the natural one is impossible, it's all grass and mountains and lakes, they all look the same.

114 on world. Damn level 10 was hard. It was all about Africa. The rest of my world geography is pretty good, but there's so many of those tiny countries in Africa, its hard to get everyone right within 500km or less, which is basically what you need to move on to the next level.

What am I missing that everyone else's scores are in the hundreds at the most, while all I'm seeing is scores in the tens of thousands on mine?

In the world one under Difficult Cities, I was actually asked to locate Calgary, Canada. Shouldn't this thing check IP's??

Incidentally, I did much better on the world and US tests than the Canada test. I know jack squat about Ontario and the Maritimes!

I was 89 km off on Calgary! How did I manage that? Closest was 12km for the tower in Berlin. Think my score was 128, level 12 just slaughtered me. Oh that was on world, didn't see all these other options.

Boooo. 112 seems weak for a map geek like me. Every so often I miss one by ~12,000 km because I think it's in asia and alas, it was africa.

Do you only get those final points(in the hundreds that everyone's listing) when you finish the final level for each area? Because if so, you're all much better than me at geography. I can't even get halfway through any of the areas(thought I was smokin at Canada until I got to Quebec), I thought I was good at geography until I came across this little number...

Are you guys seriously telling me that the majority of you have been able to not only successfully finish, but actually dominate the world map level?? I'm pretty solid at geography and after four tries I cant even get past level 6! You guys are crazy...

Nevermind, I never bothered to look at the last screen after I lost. I got a 93...

EDIT: 102 now!

I got to the last level on Canada, "the great white north" and frankly without having played the game before, that level is impossible.

I take it these are your high scores then, not your first time results?

frig I don't know BC at all. I fly up until there. I can at least take educated guesses at Quebec and Ontario that I don't know, but I'll get "Random Place, BC" and click the south east mountains by the Alberta/USA boarder and it'll be on like the Alaska/Yukon boarder.

I do manage to get Sydney within 20 KMs in a second and a half each time though

I know it pretty damn well thanks, but that is small F'in map. How the hell do you expect me find Israel on that map in a hurry?

Point in it's general direction and hope for the best!
