Daily Africa game #9

Guess the African country

One mystery country a day, the same for everyone. You get six guesses. Each guess tells you how far away the answer is and in which direction.

    How to play

    1. Look at the outline and type any African country.
    2. Each guess shows the distance between the two countries (centre to centre), an arrow pointing toward the answer and how close you are as a percentage.
    3. The tiles compare your guess with the answer: same region, more or fewer people, bigger or smaller. Green is a match, yellow is within 25%.
    4. A new hint appears after each miss. A new country arrives at midnight UTC.
