Learn flags by sight, not by memorizing a list
Guess the Flag isolates one specific skill: recognizing a country purely from its national flag. That's a different challenge from recognizing a shape or a capital city, since many flags share colors, layouts, or symbols with their regional neighbors. Every round samples up to 20 unique countries from your chosen difficulty pool.
Flag-only recognition
No outline, no capital, no clues — just the flag. A focused way to build the specific skill of flag identification.
Same curated difficulty pools
Familiar, Explorer, and Expert mirror the shape quiz's hand-picked tiers, so your progress carries over between modes.

Frequently asked questions
How many flags are in the quiz?
The flag quiz covers the same 184 sovereign countries as the shape quiz, each with its official national flag.
Is Guess the Flag free to play?
Yes. It runs entirely in your browser with no account or download required.
Where do the flag images come from?
Flag icons are adapted from the flag-icons project (MIT License). See the about page for source details.
How is this different from the shape quiz?
The shape quiz tests outline, capital, and regional clue recognition. This page isolates flag recognition specifically, since it draws on a different set of visual cues (colors, symbols, layout) than a country's outline.
