Flags of the Americas
This mode draws only from the 12 flags of the Americas in the game. Working through one region at a time is far more effective than random practice: the flags you confuse are almost always neighbours, and seeing them back to back is what fixes the difference in your memory.
What the flags of the Americas have in common
Across the 12 flags of the Americas in the game, the colours that turn up most often are white, red and navy blue. Horizontal bands dominate — five of these flags are built from them, against three using vertical ones — so when you are unsure of an orientation here, horizontal is the better guess. Stars appear on three of them, so their number and arrangement are often the only thing separating two otherwise similar designs.
How to work through them
Start with the group above that you already half-know — recall is much easier to sharpen than to build from nothing. Draw two flags that look alike back to back rather than one at a time: the moment you have to decide which colour goes where, the difference stops being trivia and becomes something you actually remember. When a flag scores below 70, draw it again immediately rather than moving on; the second attempt is where the correction sticks.
Watch out for these groups
- vertical tricolours — Ireland and Italy trip up almost everyone: orange versus red on the fly side.
