How to play
- Goal
- Recognise national flags, restore their colours, and locate their countries.
- How it ends
- Survival ends at the first mistake or when its clock expires. Other competitions end when every question or pair is completed.
- Record
- Compare scores, distance errors and finishing times in the worldwide Top Ten for each competition; personal results save in this browser.
- Eight Choices: choose one of eight countries. One mistake ends the run, and the 90-second clock runs continuously. Name the Country: type any part of a country’s name, ignoring case, then choose from the filtered full roster.
- Colour Workshop: choose a labelled colour and tap a sketch region or its large region button. Confirm each of ten flags once; unpainted fields count as wrong. True Flag: choose the original among eight colour variants.
- Blind Map: pan and zoom the unlabelled world, place a pin and confirm. Ten countries; the lowest total kilometres missed wins. Pins inside the country’s accepted land area score zero. Match Twenty: choose a name on the left and its flag on the right; wrong pairs add five seconds.
- Daily Pentathlon combines recognition, colouring, naming, map and matching. Every stage contributes up to 200 points. Your first daily attempt can rank; repeats are practice.

Worldwide score, time and name lead each competition card; personal bests are secondary. Uninterrupted attempts can enter named Top Ten rankings. Opening menus, hiding the tab or reloading an unfinished attempt makes it personal practice. Map scoring uses Natural Earth 1:10m country areas with islands and holes; cartographic coastlines and documented disputed-boundary groupings are approximations. No invisible ocean tolerance is added. No ads, SDKs or analytics inside the game.
About Flag Workshop
Seven flag competitions: race eight country choices, restore flag colours, search country names, pin countries on a blind map, match twenty pairs, spot the original flag, and compete in the daily pentathlon. Each large menu card leads with the worldwide champion’s result.
This preview uses 34 countries. The full library is being reviewed: current national flags for 193 UN members plus Palestine and Vatican City. Flags retain their original proportions; detailed emblems remain intact.
