How to play the capital city quiz

1. Choose a direction. «Name the capital» shows a country and asks for its capital. «Name the country» shows a capital and asks which country it belongs to. «Mixed» switches between both.
2. Choose a continent to practise one part of the world, or keep the whole world.
3. Choose a length: 10, 20 or 50 questions, or every country in your selection.
4. Answer by picking one of four options. Wrong options come from the same continent whenever there are enough countries, so you cannot rule them out by region alone.
5. Review your answers at the end and open any country to learn more about it.

Three modes in one country and capital city quiz

«Name the capital» shows a country, «Name the country» shows a capital, and «Mixed» switches between both, so you practise the link in both directions.
