The program starts by drawing a really excellent high resolution map of the world in blue and yellow which, once drawn, calls up the second part of the program comprising the tests. All the instructions are displayed on the screen just under the map and are easy to understand.

The interactive part of the program consists of a straight forward question and answer sessions which first ask if you want to answer questions on capitals, populations or both; and the give a choice of eight levels of difficulty.

The first level tests well known countries but the top level would demand better than average geographical knowledge. Help is given by a spot of light which appears on the map at the approximate position of the country in question.
