So, in today's game my first guess was Kinshasa. I then guessed Lima for a southern capital in another continent (forgetting its coastal location). The final stage was to use the distances (see map at top of embed). Sucre was closer, Asuncion even closer, but Buenos Aires further away, directing me to Brasilia.
I had to use a map for assistance.
Sorry for providing a spoiler for today's answer, but you can go to the Capitalle app home page and click the "practice" button for a different random capital city.
My other posts about online geography games (with links): Geoguesser, Where in the U.S.A. is this?, Worldle, and Ghent University's test. Several of these links are decades old and I haven't checked to see if they've undergone linkrot.

Don't bother. For me, its target country was Brazil, and one of the hints was "inland." Probably AI slop.
ReplyDeleteI am confused. The capital of Brazil is inland, at least 500 miles from the ocean...
ReplyDeleteTrue that. I probably should delegte anonymous' comment, but I'll wait to see if he/she responds to clarify.
DeleteBTW, I tried the game again today. And in doing so realized how my cognitive biases deceive me about how far south the northern hemisphere goes.
