Globetrotter XL

I just came across this geography game called Globetrotter XL. They give you a city name, and you try to figure out where it is on a world map as quickly as possible. Points are calculated by how accurate you are in terms of distance, and how much time you used. As you advance through the levels, the game gets harder and harder (country border lines disappear from world map).

On my first attempt, I made it to level 7 with 7287 points. I'll see what I can do to improve it. I thought my geography was pretty good, but apparently I need a lot of work. I played a lot of war strategy games growing up, and it was pretty important to be able to know what country you were targeting. My knowledge of Western African countries is severely lacking.

Time well wasted
