An orange isn’t an invitation to retrace your steps. Didn’t know that

Gah. Good game. Will play again.

The thing I find funny and quite clever about this is that I’m pretty sure thanks to sporcle that I could take a globe and put my finger on a map to within a couple of hundred miles of any country in the world, but what I didn’t learn from that is how they all fit together

Actually I think I have a bone to pick with them. On the route I eventually picked it ended with Kenya, Ethiopia, Sudan, Egypt and Israel, but I don’t see why I shouldn’t be allowed Kenya, Somalia, Yemen, Saudi Arabia? Are sea borders not allowed?

Ah I think the answer is obliquely in the help page. It doesn’t explicitly say that you can’t use a sea border but it does say you can cross a sea within a single country, implying that you can’t between countries.

That would seem to put quite a few countries out of the game entirely, including the UK and Ireland

get from the UK to Ireland

That is a bit of a puzzle then. Perhaps the issue of “international waters” comes in somewhere

They have a bridge

Bit annoyed with myself there. Knew I needed Slovenia which would have finished it but hedged and threw in a needless Bosnia first.
