How it works
Pick a quiz, then find, name or choose your answer on the 3D globe. A round has 10 questions by default, or more, up to the whole quiz. Each round picks what you need most: questions due again, new ones and the places you tend to mix up. In a short round, the questions you miss are asked once more at the end. Spaced repetition then brings them back on later days until you know them.
Every round also fills your mastery badges for the continent or country, the topic and the whole world: bronze at 50%, silver at 80% and gold at 100%.
