About Fact Ladder
Fact Ladder is a daily guess-the-country puzzle. You start with a single clue about a mystery country and climb a ladder of more clues until you can name it. Guess early for more points.
How to play Guess the Country
- You see one clue to begin. Make a guess or reveal the next clue.
- A wrong guess also reveals the next clue and shows a Compass Ring: how close your guess was (within 1,500 km, same continent, within 4,000 km, or far).
- You score 60 points with one clue, 10 fewer for each extra clue (minimum 10). You have 6 guesses.
