Far flung Game rules & controls ↗How to play Far flung Game.
Find the connection.
A daily clue might ask for a landlocked country, a region or a name ending. Several countries can fit. In Capital Quest, a capital city points to one country.
Put it on the map.
Drag and zoom the world map, then tap a country. Check the selected name and press Drop pin. Move your selection freely until you submit; each round allows one answer.
Follow the reveal.
Your answer adds distance to a pixel landscape. After five rounds, open the clues at camp to see every valid answer and tap a country for a geography fact.
A SMALLER NAME. A BIGGER DISCOVERY.Far flung Game scoring,
Far flung Game scoring,
one clue at a time.
In Daily Expedition and Unlimited, a correct country earns between 40 and 100 km. The challenge is to find a less obvious answer that still fits the rule.
“Pin a country whose name ends in -stan”
- Pakistan40 km
- Kazakhstan55 km
- Tajikistan100 km
These are the fixed tutorial’s ratings. Daily and Unlimited ratings depend on their own clues. Our ratings are editorial choices, not live player popularity.
● Common40 km
▲ Uncommon55 km
◆ Rare70 km
✦ Elusive85 km
★ Farflung100 km
Wrong answer or timeout: 0 km.
Five top answers: 500 km.
NEW / CAPITAL QUESTKnow the capital.
Know the capital.
Find the country.
Turn city knowledge into map knowledge. This capital quiz gives you a city such as Nairobi and asks you to locate its country, Kenya. Place your pin anywhere inside the correct country; you do not need to pinpoint the city.
Capital Quest in Far flung Game draws from 197 country records. Each journey asks about five different countries. Every correct answer earns 100 km, with no rarity tiers and no clock.
Start with country names visible, then hide them in the menu to practise recognising locations from their outlines. Review the correct country at camp before your next journey.

NEW / UNLIMITED
Play Far flung Game unlimited.
Keep exploring the world map after your daily expedition, without waiting for tomorrow. Each new journey shuffles five clues from our 30-question geography bank. There is no countdown, so you can study coastlines, zoom into small countries and think through the clue.
Far flung Game keeps Unlimited separate from your daily expedition. These sessions do not change your daily score, log or passport. Questions do not repeat within a journey, but can return in later sessions.
MAKE THE MAP YOUR CHALLENGEA country guessing game
A country guessing game
that grows with you.
Get comfortable with the map first. Then open the expedition menu before a new journey to hide selected country names or remove border lines. Your next guess will depend more on coastlines, relative position and memory.
The daily Far flung Game also offers a 30-second clock in place of the usual 60 seconds. Unlimited, Capital Quest and the tutorial stay untimed. Settings are fixed for a journey once it begins.

Far flung Game turns a short geography trivia session into a record you can revisit. The daily expedition saves your progress in this browser, including an unfinished round. Finishing today’s game unlocks your answer review and a spoiler-free result to copy and share.
Your passport counts distinct correct countries from saved daily journeys, so finding the same country twice does not add two stamps. The browser retains up to 90 daily records; there is no account or cross-device sync.
Clearing site data clears your record. Unlimited and Capital Quest are temporary sessions and start fresh after a reload.

Far flung Game FAQ.
Answers about the daily puzzle, unlimited play and this independent edition.
About our atlas and question bank ↗Is Far flung Game free to play?
Yes. The game on farflunggame.org is free and requires no account or download. Choose Daily Expedition, Unlimited or Capital Quest. The one-clue tutorial is also free.
When does the daily Far flung Game reset?
A new five-prompt set becomes available at midnight UTC. Everyone on this site receives the same set for that date. An expedition already in progress keeps its original date and questions.
What happens when the timer runs out?
The round earns 0 km, even if you placed a pin without submitting it. Opening the menu, changing tabs or refreshing the page does not stop the clock. The next round starts when you press Onward.
How are rare answers and distances decided?
In Daily Expedition and Unlimited, correct answers have one of five editorial ratings: Common (40 km), Uncommon (55 km), Rare (70 km), Elusive (85 km) or Farflung (100 km). These ratings belong to this edition’s question bank and do not use live player statistics. Capital Quest uses a fixed 100 km for every correct country.
Can I play Far flung Game more than once a day?
You get one expedition per UTC date in this browser. Past Week lets you play the seven most recent dates. Unlimited and Capital Quest offer repeatable five-round journeys with no timer. The tutorial repeats one fixed clue. These modes do not use your daily attempt or enter your expedition log.
Does Far flung Game save my progress?
Daily progress, completed scores and preferences are saved in this browser when local storage is available. Unlimited and Capital Quest are temporary sessions; reloading starts them over. Progress does not sync to another device. Clearing site data removes it; private browsing or blocked storage may prevent saving.
Is this the original Farflung website?
This is an independent recreation inspired by Farflung. It has its own code, questions and editorial ratings. It is not affiliated with farflung.game, and today’s questions and answers can differ from the original.
How do I select small countries in Far flung Game?
Zoom in to select small countries; the smallest states also have small map markers. Covered territories count toward the country specified by our atlas: Greenland, for example, maps to Denmark. Our rules page explains the country set and boundary limitations.
How does Far flung Game Capital Quest work?
Each round names a capital city. Find its country on the map and press Drop pin. There are five different countries per journey, drawn from 197 country records. A correct country earns 100 km; a wrong answer earns 0 km. There is no countdown, and you can start another journey after finishing.
Does Far flung Game unlimited have unlimited questions?
You can play as many sessions as you like, but the geography bank currently contains 30 authored clues. Each Unlimited journey shuffles five different clues. Questions can repeat across journeys. Capital Quest uses a separate pool of country-capital questions.
Can I play Far flung Game on my phone?
Yes. The map and controls adapt to a narrow screen. Tap to select a country, drag to move the map and use the plus and minus buttons to zoom. Your saved daily record stays in the browser you use; it does not transfer automatically between phone and desktop.
Is Far flung Game a distance guessing game?
The score measures your expedition reward, not the physical distance from your pin to a city. In Daily and Unlimited, each correct country receives an editorial rating worth 40–100 km. In Capital Quest, any pin inside the correct country earns 100 km.
YOUR NEXT DISCOVERY IS ONE PIN AWAY.
