THE WORLD IS YOUR PUZZLE
One hidden city. Six chances to narrow it down.
An alien transmission describes a city without naming it. Compare its climate, elevation and geographic surroundings, then place shields across the world map. Every successful defense brings a new clue and fewer shields: 10, 8, 6, 4, 2, then one final city choice.
Protect possibilities
Cover several plausible regions while the clues are broad. A successful defense confirms the city was protected, but decoy impacts conceal which shield saved it.
Make the final call
In round six, select the exact target from 205 cities. A victory or defeat reveals the city and a complete explanation of the clues.
A puzzle built from real geography
City locations, long-term climate and environmental measurements give each mission its evidence. These are stored reference datasets, not live weather. Use the field guide to understand what each clue measures, or read the dataset citations and limitations.
