Azimuth: United States - 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: United States
Coast to coast, arrows here can cross the whole continent. The big cities of the Northeast sit close together, so an arrow toward Boston looks almost the same as one toward New York - watch the angle, not just the direction.
