Frequently asked questions

How do you play Guess the Flag?

A flag appears and you type the name of its country, then press Enter. There are no choices, so it is harder than a multiple choice flag quiz. Pick 10, 20, 50 or all 195 flags before you start.

How many flags are in Guess the Flag?

All 195: the 193 United Nations member states plus Vatican City and Palestine. Each round draws flags at random, so every game is different.

Is there a daily guess the flag game?

Yes. Guess the Flag Daily gives everyone the same 10 flags each day, chosen fresh at midnight UTC, so you can compare scores with friends.

Do I need the exact spelling?

No. Capitals, accents, hyphens and a leading 'The' are ignored, and other common names are accepted, like Ivory Coast for Côte d'Ivoire or Czech Republic for Czechia. The full list is on this page.
