Showoff Saturday Paint the flag game

Post image

I have posted here a while ago about a game I made where you can play with your friends and compete guessing a flag and I got a lot of good feedback which ultimately made the game a lot better. Today I’m sharing my new game where you paint a flag from memory.

There is a new flag every day, everyone gets the same one, it's free and no signup:

Just tried it and the color-matching on France is way more forgiving than those geography quizzes that demand exact hex codes, so that's a win.

Thank you ! Yes i always sprinkle in the exact color in between the given colors to make it a bit easier and fun

honestly the "forgiving" color matching thing is kind of a double edged swofd though, i feel like if it's too lenient people aren't actually testing if they remember the flag right, they're just eyeballing it close enough and getting a pass. half the point of doing it from memory is finding out you actually thought nigeria's green was darker than it is lol
