About This Quiz
Map limbo, Pacific edition. Two rickety islands leaning into one another? File that away. A continent-shaped oval lounging south like a sated feline? Difficult to overlook. And then there are the speckled chain gangs—atolls spread about like ticker tape.
Cute is confidence; accurate takes the win. Count the primary islands, search for that barrier reef halo, and determine if the silhouette appears bird-esque, toothy, or nice and round. In case it appears obvious, double-take (the neighbors plagiarize homework out here).
Click steadily, zoom if possible, and let muscle memory take it from there. When coastlines begin humming their names, you'll be island-hopping without getting out of your chair.
