Frequently Asked Questions
Q.How to play Capitals?
A country appears, you give its capital. In ranked mode you type the answer (no multiple choice) and race the clock across a whole continent. In practice you play in rounds with a 4-option quiz (Easy) or assisted autocomplete typing (Medium).
Q.How does the leaderboard work?
Only ranked mode (timed race, raw typing) counts on the leaderboard. You must complete the full pool of the chosen continent; you're ranked by time. Practice (multiple choice / assisted typing) is never ranked.
Q.How many players can participate?
From 1 to 8 players. Play solo to revise, or invite up to 7 friends for a real-time race.
Q.Do I need an account to play?
No! You can play for free without creating an account. For multiplayer, create a game and share the code.
Q.What's the difference between Easy, Medium and Ranked?
Easy = 4-option multiple choice in rounds. Medium = typing with autocomplete in rounds. Ranked = raw typing in a timed race across a whole continent, and it's the only mode that feeds the leaderboard.
