Border Guesser is a geography game in which a country's border is drawn line by line while you hold a button, and you try to name the country before the outline is complete. The Daily Challenge has seven countries a day from one continent, the same for everyone, with an archive of past days.
About Border Guesser
Border Guesser is a geography quiz from JoySpark Games, played in the browser and in apps for iPhone and Android. The board starts empty. While you hold the DRAW button, the border of a country is traced on the screen, piece by piece, and you type your answer as soon as you think you know it.
The less of the border you need, the better your score. A progress bar shows how much of the outline has been drawn, and the results list each country with the percentage you needed and the time you took. A coastline with a long boot or a ruler-straight desert line can give a country away early; small inland states take longer.
The Daily Challenge is dated and the same for every player. On October 6th, 2026 it was seven countries from Africa. The home page has a calendar archive of earlier challenges, a streak counter and a share button for your score. The apps add a practice mode by continent.

Tips
- The challenge names its continent at the top, so think about which countries of that region have distinctive edges.
