How does Border Chain work?
Two countries are highlighted in blue on the map — your start and end points. Type the names of countries that share land borders to build a path connecting them. You can work inward from either end. The chain completes automatically when your two sides meet. After each puzzle you can see how your route compares to the shortest possible path, with shared countries highlighted in green.
How does Border Blitz work?
A target country is highlighted on the map. Your challenge is to name every single country that shares a land border with it before time runs out. The game displays the total number of borders to find and ticks them off as you type correct neighbors.
