    This is a pretty awesome!

    http://www.geosense.net

    Theres a map of the world and it spits out random cities and you have to click where you think it is. The closer you are the more points you get. You have a timer so you cant sit and think too hard. (Ah man!!)

    My best is 2507 so far doing the whole world map..

    There's a much slicker version of this game on Facebook/TravelPod - look up "traveller IQ challenge".

    it varies too much from game to game.

    You can get one round of countries like US, France, Italy etc and another where it's all tiny countries you've never heard of...
    Gotten 6k in one round about 3k in another...

    This game has been around for yonks! Still love playing it. I was always annoyed that you can't zoom into the map. Loads of times I know exactly where a city is but I'm still a few hundred km off because I can't hit the spot :(
