Questions & answers

How does Expedition work?

You start in a capital and get a compass heading and a distance, for example “head north-west for about 1,200 km”. Pick the country you arrive in from four, and the journey continues from there. You have 90 seconds; a wrong answer costs 3 seconds.

How are heading and distance measured?

Between capital cities, along the shortest route over the globe. The heading is the direction you set off in, rounded to one of 16 compass points; the distance is rounded to the nearest 100 km (50 km for short legs).

What happens if I pick the wrong country?

You lose 3 seconds and the leg is drawn in red, but the expedition carries on from the right destination, so you never get stuck.

Can I play Expedition with friends?

Yes. Add it as a round in a room: everyone gets exactly the same route, and the room shows who got furthest.
