Questions

Is Farflung a country quiz or a trivia game?

It is a daily geography game. Every answer is a country pin on a world chart. The prompts can be about language, history, animals, or flags, but the pin is always a country.

Is Farflung free, and do I need an account?

The official game is free in a browser. You can play as a guest without an account or download.

Can I replay a daily expedition?

The daily expedition allows one attempt. Practice is repeatable; Past week opens the previous seven days, and a missed day played late does not extend a streak. This is not an official unlimited mode.

When does the next expedition open?

At midnight in your local time. Players get the same five prompts for a given date.
