Azimuth: Europe - Find the Hidden City by Compass Bearing
The Compass City Game
A hidden city sits in the middle of the compass. Every arrow points from it to a real city, at its true bearing.
Read the angles, name the city. Seven tries, and every wrong guess becomes another arrow.
About Azimuth: Europe
Capitals and historic cities from Reykjavik to Istanbul, with most arrows under a few thousand kilometres. The Alps, the Baltic and the Mediterranean make good mental anchors: check whether an arrow crosses the mountains or runs along the coast.
