Today's is a nice change of pace, in my opinion. I guessed immediately next to it which made for a unique problem. Got it in four because my coin flip after zeroing in on it being one of two countries was wrong.

11 for me, I'm just not as good at this one as I am Worldle. I might have had it faster but my second guess threw me off a bit, it claimed to be closer than my first but visually I just don't believe that, now knowing the answer. Led me to looking further north and east than I should have been and very confused when my next guesses were then further away.

13 today. I started out on the wrong side of the world and it took me to several unfortunate guesses just to zero in on the region -- I didn't get a neighboring country until guess #11. At least I didn't need a map today.

I tried this for the first time, today. I was able to start off by selecting a country - for which it then colored and told me how far away I was to the closest border of the target country. But after that point, I’m not able to tap/select any other country. Rotating and zooming work just fine, but nothing can be chosen.

What’s the trick to move past one guess?

There should be a text box above the globe -- type your guess in that box. (I believe some folks have mentioned problems with zooming and not seeing the whole screen on mobile devices -- if you don't see the text box, it may be that your screen is zoomed in.)

Aha. That was easy. Not sure why that didn’t seem as obvious as it is. : D

OK, second guess was burgundy and <10km, so it must be a bordering nation. I got lucky!

Lucky guesswork put me in the neighborhood on the 2nd guess, and I was happy to get it in five.
