geography games

Atlas-based competitions

Geography games are activities or competitions that test knowledge of places, capitals, landmarks, borders, and other geographic features.

Common formats include identifying locations on maps, naming capitals, or the classic game where players must name a place beginning with the last letter of the previous answer: Paris—Loss Angeles—Seattle.

Educational software and quiz apps have expanded the genre.
