About Country Connections

Country Connections is a free geography connections game. You get sixteen tiles: flags, country outlines, capital cities, currencies, languages and population figures. They hide four groups of four, and your job is to find all four groups.

A group can be four countries with something in common, such as four countries that border Germany, use the euro or have names ending in “-stan”. It can also be four clues to one country: its flag, its outline, its capital and its population. Some tiles look like they fit two groups, but every puzzle is checked so each tile belongs to exactly one.

There is a new daily puzzle every day at midnight, the same for every player, and as many practice puzzles as you like.

What you’ll learn

  • Flags and country outlines from every part of the world
  • Which countries share a border, a language or a currency
  • Capital cities, populations and the biggest and smallest countries
  • Spotting patterns in country names, from “-stan” to “-ia”

Why play Country Connections?

If you enjoy word connection puzzles, this is the same idea with a map in mind. Each group you find teaches you something, and the answers explain every tile, flags and outlines included.

A puzzle takes about five minutes, it is free, and you don’t need an account. Share your coloured grid with friends and see who solves the daily puzzle with fewer mistakes.
