About the Flags of Africa What's Missing? Game
A picture-recall challenge based on the classic parlour game. Study a board of pictures for a few seconds, then one quietly disappears — can you say which? Rounds get bigger and faster as you go, and three wrong answers ends the run.
From Cairo to Cape Town, Africa's flags glow with pan-African greens, golds and reds. Match twelve African flags and pick up some geography while your memory does the heavy lifting.
