Peak Order

Drop each landform into its correct spot in the ranking — tallest, longest or deepest — without slipping.

How to play

Features arrive one at a time — mountains by height, rivers by length, lakes by depth. Drop each into the gap where it belongs in the running order. A wrong placement costs you, so judge the magnitude before you commit.

• Read the current feature and the measure being ranked
• Click the gap where it fits in the order
• Build the list from biggest to smallest (or as the round asks)
• Place every feature correctly to clear the round

Controls

• Desktop: click the gap in the ranking where the feature belongs
• Phone & tablet: tap the gap to drop the feature there

Game modes

• Daily: one shared seeded ranking ranked globally
• Practice: fresh feature sets each round across difficulty levels

Tips & strategy

• Anchor on a few landmarks you know — the tallest peak or longest river — and place others relative to them
• When unsure, bracket the feature between two you've already placed correctly
• Don't guess wildly; one misplacement can ripple through the rest of the order
