Screen­shot of the game

It took us almost two weeks to get this done, but finally it’s here for you — the geog­ra­phy darts “How well you know the USSR”? The trivia would range from what the cap­i­tal of the USSR was to the place which was called “the ice cur­tain” on the bor­der of the US and Rus­sia. There are 36 ques­tions alto­gether, they vary in dif­fi­culty and pop in ran­dom order. You get to save your high score and com­pare it with other play­ers includ­ing the USSR team. We had a trial run yes­ter­day and so far the map has been viewed more than 17 000 times, and it’s still early!

Do switch to the FULL SCREEN MODE by click­ing the square icon and then drag around — Rus­sia is a big coun­try, it helps a lot.

Re-tweet, let us know what you think  — and thanks for being such a won­der­ful crowd. More to come — stay tuned!
