What the map tells you about each one

The paragraph the game shows when you find each one. Reading them first is not cheating.

Bafing River: The Bafing flows into Mali and joins the Bakoy at Bafoulabé, where the Senegal River begins.
Gambia River: It runs through Senegal and The Gambia toward the Atlantic. OpenStreetMap geometry follows its mapped course to the Atlantic estuary.
Niger River: Follow its available mapped mainstem through Mali, Niger, Benin and Nigeria to the Niger Delta. The many delta distributaries are not all shown.
Senegal River: After the Bafing and Bakoy meet, the Senegal flows west along the Mauritania–Senegal border to the Atlantic near Saint-Louis.

How this one works

How many rivers are on the map?

4. Every one of them is on the map, and a run asks 4 of them. Pass a round and the places you found in it drop out of the pool, so the next run is what you have left.

What is a round?

A run of 4 questions, and 3 right passes it. One round covers the whole map, and the counter at the top of the Guinea page counts the ones behind you. Passing is what banks a round's finds: miss the mark and nothing is taken off the map, so every place that round asked about is still there to be asked again. A round is always the places you have not found yet, and when fewer than five are left it is topped up with a few you have found as review, so the last round is never one or two questions. Three quarters of it passes it.

Can I start the map over?

Yes. "Reset this map" under the counter puts all 4 back in the pool and sets the rounds to zero the moment you press it, so the whole map is there to be found again from nothing. It clears this map only; the other maps of Guinea keep their progress.

Do I need an account?

No. The game plays in the page, and a guest's progress is kept in their own browser. Signing in carries it between devices and earns XP for a run.

What happens when I get one wrong?

The map names what you actually hit, then lights up the right answer in green and tells you something about the place. Missing one is how most of this map gets learned.
