Category Challenges

A Category Challenge is a timed run on one themed slice of the atlas: a single country, a whole continent, the world's great rivers, the ancient world. 10 places against the clock, scored exactly like the Daily Challenge. Unlike the daily you can replay as much as you like: each pack keeps a leaderboard of every player's best.

Every pack is free to play once a day with an account (premium is unlimited). Click any pack below for its own page, or open the game and pick Challenges from the menu.

How scoring works

Each place earns distance points (closer is better, on an exponential curve) plus a speed bonus, with the same size handicap on feature packs (rivers, seas, deserts) that the campaign uses: a pin anywhere on the water counts, but the giants pay less.
