Azimuth: Germany - 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: Germany
From the North Sea ports of Hamburg and Bremen to the Alpine towns of Garmisch-Partenkirchen and Berchtesgaden. The Ruhr cities are packed so tightly that their arrows are short, and the hardest bands reach the half-timbered towns of the Romantic Road, like Rothenburg ob der Tauber and Dinkelsbühl.
