📚 How to Play & Learn Switzerland Geography

Master Switzerland Geography Through Interactive Play

Where in Switzerland is an educational geography game designed to help you learn and master the locations of Switzerland cantons. Unlike traditional geography quizzes with multiple choice questions, this game challenges you to find cantons on an interactive map with no hints, testing and improving your spatial memory.

How the Game Works

The game displays a canton name at the top of the screen, and your job is to click on that canton's location on the Switzerland map. There are no tooltips, no hints, and no multiple choice options - just you, the map, and your memory.

Educational Benefits

This interactive approach to learning Switzerland geography is more effective than passive study methods. By actively engaging with the map and receiving immediate feedback, you develop stronger spatial memory and geographic literacy.

Tips for Success

  • Start with the largest cantons: Graubunden, Bern, and Valais are easier to spot by size and borders.
  • Learn by region: focus on western, central, and eastern Switzerland to build a mental map.
  • Use lakes and borders: lakes and country borders help anchor nearby cantons.
  • Zoom for compact cantons: small cantons cluster tightly in the north and west.

Game Features

The game includes several features to enhance your learning experience: zoom and pan controls for detailed map exploration across Switzerland, a scoring system that rewards accuracy and speed, progress tracking that saves your session, and an optional timer mode for advanced players.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many cantons are in Switzerland?

Switzerland has 26 cantons. This game includes all 26 cantons shown on the map.

What are the hardest cantons to find on the map?

Is this game suitable for students and classroom use?

Yes! Where in Switzerland is perfect for geography lessons and classroom activities. It's ideal for middle school and high school students learning Switzerland geography, history, and regional studies. Teachers can use it as an interactive quiz, homework assignment, or test preparation tool.

Are the names shown in English or local spellings?

Does my progress save if I close the browser?

Yes! Your progress, including completed cantons, score, and statistics, is automatically saved in your browser's local storage. Your session data remains available for 24 hours, allowing you to take breaks and return to continue your game. After 24 hours, the data expires and you'll start fresh with a new session.

What's the difference between this and other geography games?

Unlike multiple choice quizzes or games with hints, Where in Switzerland provides a pure geography challenge with no assistance. You must know the actual location of each canton on the Switzerland map - there are no clues, tooltips, or elimination options. This makes it more challenging but also more effective for truly learning Switzerland geography.

Can I use this game on mobile devices or tablets?

Yes! The game is fully responsive and works on smartphones, tablets, and desktop computers. On touch devices, you can use pinch-to-zoom gestures to zoom in on the map and tap cantons to select them.
