Question 1

How many rivers are on the map?

Accepted Answer

5. Every one of them is on the map, and a run asks 5 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.

Question 2

What is a round?

Accepted Answer

A run of 5 questions, and 4 right passes it. One round covers the whole map, and the counter at the top of the Slovakia 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.

Question 3

Can I start the map over?

Accepted Answer

Yes. "Reset this map" under the counter puts all 5 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 Slovakia keep their progress.

Question 4

Do I need an account?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 5

What happens when I get one wrong?

Accepted Answer

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.
