50 States Game

// July 8th, 2007 // Fun Whatnot

I’ve always had an odd obsession for geography. This is a fun little game which gives you a satellite view of the US with no political lines drawn. You have to place the shapes of the states where you think they go. I managed to get 45 out of 51 (they include District of Columbia) in 420 seconds with an average error of 11 miles. I felt pretty good about that score, give it a shot and let me know how you did.

    That was cool, however, I terrible at geography – My score 38 out of 51. It would have been 39 out of 51 had rhode island properly stayed in place. I was robbed…

    :)
