Games Like Farflung: 12 Daily Map and Rare-Answer Games (2026)
Updated Oct 23, 2026 · 12 games · official links only
Farflung is a daily geography quiz played on a world map: five prompts each have several correct countries, you pin one per prompt against a clock, and answers few people think of carry your expedition further than the obvious ones. This list picks games that mix geography with rare-answer scoring first, then rare-answer trivia on other topics, then daily map games for the geography side.

GeoGrid
Countries plus rarity scoring on a 3x3 board: each square needs a country that fits both its row and column clue, and rarer correct answers earn a better score. Nine squares instead of five timed prompts.
Farhike
A very similar format: five daily prompts, one pin per prompt on a world map with a 60-second clock, and correct countries scored by how few players chose them. It also offers play beyond the daily set and an archive.
Wormillion
Rare-answer geography without a map: ten prompts a day, 30 seconds each, where you type a real place, and little-known towns or rivers score far more than famous capitals, judged by Wikipedia views.
Krillion
The same reward for uncommon answers, on general trivia: seven "name a..." prompts with 25 seconds each, where obvious answers barely score and the rarest valid answer scores most.
MapTap
Daily geography on a 3D globe: tap where five named places are, scored by distance, with later rounds counting more. Each prompt has one right spot, so there is no rarity to chase.
Think Rarer
Seven category prompts a day with 20 seconds each, scored from 10 points for common answers to 100 for ones almost nobody names, based on Wikipedia readership. Some categories are geographic, such as a country in Africa.
Outrivia
Ten open trivia prompts a day with 30 seconds each, where answers fall into rarity bands from Crowd to Outlier and later questions are worth up to four times more.
Uncommon Trivia
Seven open category questions a day with 25 seconds and one guess each, scored 10 to 100 by how rarely the answer's Wikipedia page is read. Typed answers, no map.
Anything Grid
A 3x3 grid where anything that fits both its row and column counts, and answers with fewer page views score better. Not limited to geography.
Globle
A daily country hunt on a globe: guess as many countries as you need, with each one colored by how close it is to the mystery country. One answer, found by following the heat.
Worldle
Name a country from its silhouette in six guesses, with distance, direction and proximity hints after each miss, plus bonus rounds on flags, capitals and neighbors.
GeoConnections
Sort 16 tiles of flags, cities, capitals, populations and internet domains into four groups with a shared geographic link. Country knowledge again, used for grouping instead of pinning.
