Azimuth: Norway - 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: Norway
A very long country: from Oslo in the south the cities run up the coast past the Arctic Circle to Tromsø, Hammerfest and Kirkenes. The Lofoten villages of Reine, Henningsvær and Nusfjord sit close together, which makes them a Master-band challenge.
