In today's video, we're gonna be playing Worldle,
followed by Flaggle,
followed by Globle,
followed by TimeGuessr,
followed by Globle: Capitals,
followed by Countryle,
followed by WhereTaken,
followed by Capitale,
followed by Wherdle,
followed by Blind Secret Country X.
This'll be the first time I've played some
of these geography games, so hopefully we do okay.
Starting with Worldle,
and I've hidden the country outline
to make things a little bit harder.
So let's go with Mali to begin with.
A nice big African country.
It's 12,000 kilometres away, so not really anywhere near,
so it's over towards like right on the edge of the map.
So maybe like Japan.
Let's try Japan.
Guess.
So way, way closer, 95%,
and then it's 900 kilometres away.
So would that bring us to China?
Maybe. I'm gonna try it. Guess.
Oh, we're actually further away with that one,
2,000 kilometres.
So maybe like North Korea or South Korea.
Let us try North Korea.
Guess.
Oh, here we go.
Ah, 97%.
So presumably that means it's South Korea.
It's directly below it.
But I'm a bit confused why it's 494 kilometres away.
Shouldn't that be zero kilometres,
seeing as they border each other?
But either way we'll try it,
'cause I'm assuming that is the right one.
Guess.
Yeah, there we go,
and there's the actual outline revealed as well.
All right, we'll do each of the bonus rounds.
Guess the neighbours.
Let's do it.
Can you guess the four countries that border South Korea?
Let's show the map for this one.
All right, so number 4 is China.
There you go.
Number 3, that looks like Taiwan to me.
Let's whack that in there. Thank you.
So it's not actually a land border, is it?
They're just the four closest countries.
Number 2, that is obviously Japan.
A pretty iconic country shape.
And then finally,
I mean, that's got to be North Korea, hasn't it?
I am assuming so, anyway.
And guess, yoo be doo!
Guess the capital.
Oh, okay.
Capital of South Korea, I know that.
That's just Seoul.
I don't know how to spell it, though. Seoul.
There it is.
Guess.
And then we've got guess the flag,
which is nice and easy.
And then the final round is guess the population.
Ooh, South Korea.
It could be 30 million+, it's gonna be C or D.
I don't know which one to go with.
I'm gonna go with D.
Yes, 51 million.
And then we've got a borders bonus.
What is the currency used?
Real is in Brazil.
Krona is Europe somewhere, I think.
I think it's Won, but I'm not 100%
It is. There we go.
Okay, let's move on to Flaggle,
which I didn't play the first time I did this.
So basically you say any country,
let's go with, what should I go with?
I'll go with Denmark.
Is that a good start?
Guess.
And then what it does is it shows you the Denmark flag,
and the bits of the mystery flag
that line up with Denmark's flag.
So this is, what?
I think Denmark was a really bad starting guess.
So what this means is that these bits of the flag
have white in them,
which lines up with the white in Denmark.
So what's gonna be white,
just on a very thin strip on the top and the bottom?
I don't know.
Let's try United Kingdom,
just because that's got like white in a few different areas,
and let's see if that's any more helpful.
Oh, it's not gonna be Scotland, is it?
Ooh, Scotland is actually an acceptable guess.
Ooh, I think that was, no.
This is really weird.
So it's something with a cross in it.
So is it Jamaica?
But Jamaica doesn't have any white in it.
Either way, we're gonna guess it
just so I can see what's going on.
What on earth is this flag?
Maybe I don't understand the game.
I'm really confused by this.
Whatever the flag is has yellow in this central area.
So we need something with a yellow circle.
So I'm thinking it's actually Brazil.
So let me guess.
Here we go. Go on.
Ah, it's not. What is going on?
So based on these two previous answers,
it's something that's got a yellow circle
in the middle, maybe,
but then also the yellow continues outwards here.
I'm visualising this wrong, aren't I?
So I need something that has a yellow triangle
around this centre area.
What has a yellow triangle?
I don't know.
I'm gonna try Czechia, just so I can see the shape.
I'm hoping that'll be helpful.
No, that's not helpful at all.
Ooh, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
That could be not a bad guess.
Let's try that.
That is a, ah, see look, it's got the yellow,
and then it's got white along the top.
So what's yellow in the middle?
Oh, is it Bahamas?
I'm gonna try it.
That could be right.
Oh, oh no, it's still not right,
but it's actually giving us a lot more of the flag.
Something that looks quite a bit like The Bahamas flag.
I know it isn't Saint Lucia,
but I'm trying it just cause of the colour scheme.
(Jack laughs)
Okay, I think I know what it is.
Is it Palau?
I'm gonna try Palau.
Yes, the answer is Palau.
What's the crosses for?
I understand The Bahamas, Saint Lucia, Brazil,
but there's no crosses anywhere.
So I think that's a error on Flaggle's part,
but maybe I'm just being stupid.
Please let me know in the comments.
Okay.
Hopefully we can redeem ourselves with Globle,
a bit more of a classic.
I'm gonna go Mali once again,
because someone in the comments in my last video
said they always go with Mali, and I'm inspired.
Right, it's not Mali, and it's 7,000 kilometres away.
So that could take us to maybe somewhere like here.
So let's go Pakistan.
Yeah, Pakistan.
And hopefully we've gone the right way.
We have.
Closest border's now 500 kilometres,
so I'm not gonna go India,
but I am gonna go above India, and I'm gonna try Bhutan.
Go for it.
Oh no, but the closest border's now 80 kilometres.
So is it Nepal?
It must be Nepal.
Yes it is.
See that's how it's meant to go.
Let's play TimeGuessr,
and we're gonna do the daily, which is, ooh,
so we know we're at the White House,
and that's bloody Pablo Escobar.
Maybe that isn't the White House then, actually.
I just assumed on first glance.
Maybe that's like Pablo's mansion.
Yeah, surely Pablo Escobar's
not gonna be stood right outside of the White House,
unless he's being like,
"Look at me. I'm literally untouchable."
I dunno.
I mean, it looks quite a lot like the White House,
but he just looks very close to it, doesn't he?
And surely there'd be more
than just a basic little iron fence.
What year should we say?
I don't know, like seventies?
I'm not 100% sure when he was kicking about.
I'll go with '73.
And do we go with Columbia where he was from,
or do we go with the White House?
You see any American flags or anything?
Oh, I don't know.
Yeah, I'm gonna go White House.
Oh, there's actually a slight picture of it there.
(Jack laughs)
That's all I can get though, isn't it?
He'd have to be literally like here.
He'd have to be really, really close to it.
Do you know what?
Let's just go for it.
Make the guess.
Yes, it is the White House.
"Pablo Escobar posing in front of the White House
during his height of power."
Wow, that is kind of badass, I'm not gonna lie.
So I got the wrong side, that was my error,
but I was only 140 metres away, which is pretty good.
And it was eight years off.
But you know what?
That's not too bad.
As if he did that just to be like, "Look how mint I am."
Dodgy guy. Really dodgy.
Not good. Not good.
Right, we'll move on to Countryle,
where we once again have to find a mystery country,
but we're given a load of stats about it,
which really does help.
So let's try Mali once again.
Keep the theme going.
Shout out to Scepter01, by the way,
who was the person that suggested going with Mali
to begin with.
All right, so Countryle has told us that it is not Mali,
but it is a country in Africa.
However, it is in the Southern Hemisphere,
because Northern's red,
and it is a bit colder 'cause Mali's really hot.
That makes sense.
It has a population higher than 20 million,
and it's southeast.
Okay, well, it's somewhere around here.
Population of 20 million.
Do you wanna try Kenya?
Yeah, we'll try Kenya, let's go for it.
Enter.
Right, we've gone too high now
with the population 55 million,
but we are in the right kind of temperature zone.
So it's gonna be somewhere not too far from Kenya,
but it is in the south.
Shall I just go with South Africa, do you think?
Just trying to think somewhere
that's got like a high enough population.
No, I'm wrong.
South Africa's population's the highest so far as well.
All right, northeast of that, which makes sense.
Maybe Mozambique.
Do we wanna go Mozambique?
Let's try it.
Oh, we got it.
There's all of the stats if you are curious.
32 million.
A lot of people live in Africa.
Okay, this is WhereTaken,
another game that I have not played before.
I have genuinely no idea on this one.
I don't think I'm gonna do particularly well,
but I am guessing
that it's maybe like Italy, or Switzerland, or something.
So let's try.
Shall we try Italy?
Let's go with Italy.
Guess.
Ooh, 98%.
So what does that mean?
'Cause it says country or region.
So does this mean it's in Italy,
and I just need to be more specific,
or does it mean it's 398 kilometres from Italy?
I'm a guessing so.
If I'm heading northeast,
I guess Switzerland doesn't make sense anymore,
but I'm gonna be honest,
I think I wanna rule it out just to be sure.
Yeah, it's not quite Switzerland,
but it is to the east of Switzerland,
so I guess that means,
I don't know.
We'll try Czechia.
Guess Czechia.
98%, down from Czechia, Austria?
I guess Austria would make sense.
Let's guess that one.
99%.
How have we not got the country yet?
I don't know at all.
I'm gonna try Slovenia.
Ooh, we got there.
(Jack laughs)
So there are bonus rounds.
Let's have a go.
Which landmark is in Slovenia?
Well I'm assuming not A, B,
so it's gonna be between C and D.
Based on that previous image, let's go with this one.
Ah, what a nice guess.
"What is the above landmark in Slovenia called?"
Now this, I'm just not gonna know,
but you never know,
we might be able to guess it by ruling some out.
So it is not a mosque,
it's not gonna be George Washington House,
Bled Castle, could be.
I'm thinking Herat Citadel.
Yeah, let's try that one.
Ah, I was wrong.
You know what?
I'm gonna go back to Bled Castle.
It was.
I should have just gone with it.
"What is the capital city of Slovenia?"
Okay, I get Slovenia and Slovakia mixed up,
so there's Ljubljana and there's Bratislava, maybe?
I think Slovenia is Ljubljana,
so let's give it a go.
Oh, no.
Oh, I was right.
It teased me, but we got there.
"Which city in Slovenia was this photo taken in?"
Do we have any clues?
I'm just gonna do a random guess.
I'm gonna go with Koper.
I need to buy a lottery ticket or something.
Okay, we're back to Globle,
but we are playing Globle: Capitals for the first time.
I've not done this before,
so I'm sure this will go absolutely terribly.
Let's try London to begin with.
Okay, 4,000 kilometres from London.
This is gonna be way too hard, isn't it?
4,000 kilometres,
so maybe Ankara in Turkey?
Let's try it.
Go for it.
Oh, no, further away.
Interesting.
So we could maybe be going into Africa,
and I don't think I know any African capitals.
Or could 4,000 kilometres get us over to Washington?
It's my only hope, really, so I'm gonna try it.
London's still my closest, but Washington's further away.
Wait, well what does that mean then?
Should I try capital of Canada, which I think is Ottawa?
Which is in the total wrong area.
Oh no it isn't.
I guess that makes a bit of sense.
I'm just trying Madrid to get an idea.
I'm getting very confused with these lines.
(Jack laughs)
Madrid is closest, 3,000 kilometres away.
So that means, yeah, it's in Africa.
I know the capital of Algeria is Algiers, I think.
I'm gonna try it.
Oh, it corrects it if I didn't quite get the spelling.
Well that's nice,
but Madrid's actually technically still closer.
Is it?
Have we tried Rome yet?
Let's try Rome.
Madrid's still closest. What?
Well, I'm just gonna have to name the capitals
that I do know, which is Tunis.
No, I'm not gonna get this,
so I'll just have to keep hoping for the best.
Lisbon's now officially our closest.
So that means it is gonna be somewhere over here.
So is it like the capital of Cape Verde, maybe?
Right, I'm cheating,
just because I know I'm not gonna get it.
So Praia is the capital of Cape Verde.
Let's try it.
Yeah, it was Praia.
Thank God I cheated.
Oh my God.
Okay, now we're moving on to Wherdle,
another game I've not played before.
"You'll be shown five photos of today's Wherdle place.
After each guess you can see how far away you were,
and which direction you should be heading.
If you get it within five guesses you win."
But once again, I might completely screw this up,
but let's hope for the best.
Ooh, guess which city this is in?
Oh my God, yeah, this might be above my pay grade, this one.
So it looks Asian, definitely.
Maybe Indian?
I can name some places in India.
So I guess that's what I'm gonna have to do.
So I'm gonna go with New Delhi, just to hope for the best.
It's not New Delhi.
There's another image.
So we might have some flag colours on these boards.
Is this Egypt in front?
So maybe I'll try Cairo.
Let's submit that one.
I'm not correct.
It definitely looks more like India or Pakistan,
based on this image, doesn't it?
Oh, I've not been paying attention
to these numbers down here.
That could definitely help.
So down from New Delhi,
I mean Sri Lanka's capital is called Colombo,
I think, isn't it?
So let's try that one. You never know.
No, but it's 600 up from Colombo, so it must be India.
Is this the area
where they like put dead loved ones in boats
and they send them down the river?
The Ganges, is that what it's called?
I'm just gonna type India in, and go with one of these.
Let's go with Goa.
Submit.
I'm wrong.
Well I'll try Chennai, then.
I actually got it.
But I couldn't have said Chennai.
It's just 'cause I got lucky typing in India.
That was tough, that one.
All right.
And finally we're doing Blind Secret Country X.
I did the first nine a couple of months ago.
So we only have 1:30,
and we'll go with India then, after that last one.
So not too close to India.
Let's try Mali.
Bit warmer with Mali, but not much.
Let's do USA.
Oh God, they're still yellow.
So I need to get like the red colours.
None of them are far, though, which is blue,
which is quite interesting.
So maybe we'll go Europe.
Let's go UK.
Hmm. Okay, let's do Iceland then.
No.
Italy. Let's try Italy.
Italy is our warmest thus far.
So from Italy, let's go right.
Let's go with Croatia.
Let's try that.
It's still quite warm.
No matter how warm it gets,
I'm gonna test that by going to Turkey.
Oh, I think that's a slightly darker shade
with Italy and Croatia.
Let's try Portugal.
No, I need to be sticking in it.
So I'm gonna go Vatican.
Still not there.
I've got 26 seconds.
Oh my God, that went quick.
Malta.
Slovakia.
Monaco.
Andorra.
Spain.
Austria.
(Jack laughs)
I'm about to run out of time.
Go on, then, give me the real answer.
Oh my God.
I think that's Kosovo.
Right. Fair enough.
I got thrown off with how orange Turkey was.
I got a little bit unlucky there,
but also, my bad, I screwed that up.
Well, a bit of a disappointing end to this video,
but hopefully you enjoyed it nonetheless.
Thank you very much for watching.
If there's any geography-based games
that I have not yet played,
please let me know in the comments so I can do this again,
and we can just make this video longer each time.
Thanks a lot.
I'll see you later.
