Learn African Geography by Playing
Africa has 54 countries - more than any other continent - and most people can name a handful. The borders are unusually straight in places and unusually tangled in others, several capitals are not the city you would expect, and West Africa alone packs sixteen countries into a stretch most maps render at thumbnail size. These games break it into pieces you can actually remember, and every one of them is free to play in your browser.

About our Africa games
Every game on this page draws on the same African country set, so progress in one carries over to the others. Learn where Burkina Faso sits in the map game and you will pick its flag out faster too. Because 54 countries is a lot to take at once, the lessons split the continent into North, West, Central, East and Southern Africa rather than asking you to swallow it whole.
If you would rather revise before being tested, those lessons cover the same ground in a readable format, each ending with a short quiz.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many African countries do the games cover?
All 54 African countries. Several games split them across difficulty levels, so the first level sticks to the better-known countries and later levels bring in the smaller ones.
Which Africa game should I start with?
Capitals is the gentlest entry point, since most people already know a few. The map and borders games are harder, because they give you no names at all. Travel Route is the one that really tests whether you know which countries touch.
Do I need an account to play?
No. Every game on this page opens and plays straight away. An account only matters if you want your scores saved to the leaderboards.
Can I play these Africa games on my phone?
Yes. All of them work in a mobile browser, including the map games, which use touch to pan and zoom.
Are the games free?
Yes, all the Africa games are free. A few of the deeper country packs are part of GeoFun+, and those are marked on the page.
