Neighbour Rush

One country, a ticking clock, and all its neighbours to find.

How to play

You get a country and the number of land neighbours it has. Press the button to start the clock, then tap every neighbouring country on the map, or type their names. Found countries light up green. Find them all before time runs out.

Scoring

You are rated out of 10 by how many you find, and each wrong tap costs one point. Finish with no mistakes for a perfect 10.

Difficulty

Easy gives 60 seconds for countries with 3 to 5 neighbours. Medium gives 45 seconds for 5 to 8. Hard gives 40 seconds for 8 to 14, and every wrong tap also costs 3 seconds.

About the borders

Neighbours come from the Natural Earth map. Countries that only touch at a single point do not count.

Difficulty and modes

Easy, Medium and Hard each have their own puzzle every day, so there are three to play. A tick on the tab means you have finished it. Unlimited is endless survival play at the difficulty you choose: keep going until you slip, and try to beat your personal best, which is saved in your browser.
