About Geo Explorer
Geography drill with a clickable US map, plus continents, oceans, countries and flags.
Ankhdase tracks 4 distinct skills in Geo Explorer, including US states, US capitals, Continents & oceans and Countries & flags. Because mastery is estimated per skill rather than per game, the questions shift toward whatever a student is getting wrong — and away from what they have already proved they know.
There are 4 modes to choose from: US states, US capitals, Continents and Flags.
How to play
- US map: click the state you are asked for. States are color-coded by region.
- The other modes are quick-fire quizzes on capitals, continents and flags.
- Miss one and the right answer is shown before the next question.
Skills Geo Explorer practices
- US states
- US capitals
- Continents & oceans
- Countries & flags
Mastery is estimated separately for each of these, which is what lets the difficulty move independently — a student can be fluent on one and still be fed easier questions on another.
