Three map outlines a day, each one rotated so you can't recognise it. Every outline starts at an angle it never sits at in an atlas, so you can't coast on the picture you remember from school. You have to read the shape itself, the way one edge runs straight where the other frays. HOW IT WORKS Everyone gets the same three puzzles each day, in the same order: two well-known countries, then a harder one. It starts easy. Finish them and you can try a bonus US state, just for fun. You always see which part of the world you're looking at. Answer straight away for the maximum score, or spend points on as many hints as you like: - Turn it upright, when the angle is what's beating you - Number of letters - First or last letter - A fun fact - Neighbouring countries - Shorten the list to one region - Multiple choice, when you want to be done Every hint takes points off your score, so a clean guess with no hints always scores highest. You pick from a list rather than typing, so a spelling slip never loses you a puzzle. New puzzles arrive at midnight UTC. WHAT'S IN THE POOL 137 countries and 42 US states, picked for being recognisable. Wyoming is a rectangle. It's not in there. Shapes come from Natural Earth, the public-domain map dataset, so every coastline is the real one. STREAKS AND STATS A day counts toward your streak only when all three puzzles are done. A seven-day strip on the home screen shows where you are. Lifetime stats track your win rate, your best and average score, how many hints you use and how you do by category. Free. SHARE WITHOUT SPOILING Share a result card showing your score and the outline at its hidden angle. The name never appears, so your friends get the puzzle rather than the answer. OUTLIE PRO Pro removes ads, opens the full archive of past days and protects your streak if you miss a day. Choose monthly, annual or a one-off lifetime purchase. The annual works out cheaper than monthly. Without Pro, you can watch a video to win back points after a wrong guess, or to open the archive for 24 hours. No ad ever interrupts a puzzle. PLAYS OFFLINE Every puzzle is bundled inside the app, so it works on a plane. No account to create. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
