Metropolis: Cities of Europe
Today our friends at the European Commission Delegation in Washington DC launched a new EU geography game called Metropolis: Cities of Europe. The game was developed by the delegation as a fun and interactive tool for raising U.S. awareness about European history, geography, and culture. Each player has to answer 14 questions and each correct answer is a city in one of the EU’s 28 Member States. Once players think they know the answer, they can click on the location of that city on the interactive map. Players will be scored on two criteria: first, how fast they respond, and second, how close they are geographically to the right city. People may play the game as often as they like. The person to achieve the highest score between July 8, 2014 and August 15, 2014 will win a voucher for two round-trip tickets to Brussels, Belgium. Only U.S. residents who are 18 years old and above are eligible to win the award, but the game is open to anyone who would like to play.
