About Farflung Play.

One little daily escape.

We believe a few quiet minutes of curiosity can turn an ordinary day into a small adventure. Farflung Play is a free daily geography game: guess a country, read the clues, and discover a corner of the world.

An independent expedition.

Farflung Play is an independent project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by the creators of the original Farflung game at farflung.game. Our puzzle schedule, visual design, and implementation are our own. References to other games identify those games and their respective owners.

Our atlas.

Map geometry comes from Natural Earth, a public-domain dataset, distributed through world-atlas. Country names, aliases, capitals, and reference coordinates use the world-countries dataset under the Open Database License. Our adapted playable country dataset is available under the same license. Map boundaries and the list of playable destinations are gameplay aids, not statements about sovereignty or borders.

A note on precision.

Clues use great-circle distances and initial bearings between reference coordinates. They are not travel distances, distances to borders, or measurements between capitals. Very small countries are always available through search even if they are too small to show on the map.
