Gauntlet: Countries-geography guessing game based on clues

Example

The game starts by selecting a random country, which can range from well-known nations to obscure and niche territories.

Scenario

A user starts the game on the 'Intermediate' level, where they are provided with a series of hints that lead to guessing a country like Bhutan. The initial clues might focus on its mountainous terrain and Buddhist culture before narrowing down to more specific details like its capital city.

Example

As the player makes guesses, they receive additional clues that gradually become more revealing.

Scenario

During the game, the player is first told that the country is located in South America. Upon guessing incorrectly, the next clue reveals that it has one of the largest river systems in the world, hinting towards countries like Brazil or Peru.

Example

The game tracks the number of incorrect guesses by changing green circles to red circles, allowing the player to visually see their progress.

Scenario

A player is guessing a difficult country and makes three incorrect guesses, leading to three red circles. They finally guess correctly on their fourth attempt, at which point the game explains how each clue related to the country in question.
