Festival Trail

Each puzzle hides a country behind cultural clues, its cuisine, celebrations and currency. Guess from as little information as you can; revealing extra clues makes it easier but lowers your reward.

• Start with one clue and guess the country from its culture
• Reveal another clue only if you need it, each one costs you
• Pick from the options or type the country name
• Solving on fewer clues scores higher

• Daily trail, the same country for everyone today
• Practice, a fresh country each trail

• Desktop: click an option or type the country, then click Guess
• Phone & tablet: tap an option or the field and tap Guess

• Currency names are often the sharpest single tell, learn the distinctive ones
• Pair a signature dish with a region to halve your shortlist
• Resist revealing more clues when one detail already feels decisive

Identifying a country from its cuisine, celebrations and currency is cultural rather than physical geography, and revealing more clues at a lower score is the original scoring.

You choose how much help to buy.

Currency is usually the sharpest of the three and the last people think of. Dishes and festivals cross borders freely, while a currency name is generally unique to a country and often carries its history in the word — which makes it the clue worth paying for.
