    How to use these hints

    This page works out today's Country Shape answer in your browser from the same seed as the game, so it always matches the puzzle for your local date. Hints go from vague to specific: first the continent, then the sub-region, the first letter, the number of letters and the population. Reveal only what you need. Most players solve the puzzle after the second or third hint, and you can still keep your streak as long as you enter the answer in the game yourself.

    Solving strategy

    For country shapes, use the continent hint to recall the neighbours of the outline. Coastlines, panhandles and long straight borders are the strongest clues. If the shape is small and compact, think about the neighbours of your best previous guess. The distance and arrow from your previous guesses are still the most valuable information: a proximity above 80% usually means the answer borders your guess.
