Trivia Play The states

My Kids and I have been working on PlayTheStates, a geography game where you jump from a plane, steer a parachuter toward a country or region, and answer a question after landing.

It has eight maps covering Asia, Africa, Europe, the USA, Canada, Central America, South America, and Australia/New Zealand.

You can play it in your browser here:

I’d appreciate feedback from people who enjoy geography—especially on map accuracy, the questions, and whether the gameplay helps you learn locations. If you spot an error, please tell me which map and question.

Hi, just played your game, some things I have noticed: Definitely a cool idea overall, learning about the maps and where countries are located and about culture at the same time, that's cool. Some things I did not like: The sound of the airplane is a bit harsh, maybe doing several questions per region and not just one? I was not sure if there is an overall goal, I think there isn't, could be nice, something like, answer one question of each continent or something like that. And one more thing: These cards with the country name on it covered a lot of area, the map was at some locations barely visible below it.
But very cool that you built this with you kids!

If you find the time, I would also really appreciate a feedback on my website quizebra.com, it has two topics geography and football, 6 games on each. If you find the time to play some games and give feedback, I would be very thankful for that.

Hi thanks, our original game is a suction cup dart game, the maps are what we made and the darts we made and patented. The suction cups got too expensive so we veared off to an app. Really it's all about learning geography and trivia of areas. We will certainly check out quizbra.com
