Europe
Germany from the air
Flyover drops you over 5 cities in Germany — 4 standard, 1 expert. Each one below carries the tell the game uses: the single feature that separates it from everywhere else.
The 5 cities
- Berlin Reads as: broad avenues.
- Cologne Reads as: cathedral river.
- Frankfurt Reads as: river skyline.
- Hamburg Reads as: harbor and canals.
- Munich Reads as: historic core.
Telling them apart
The hard part is rarely recognising that you are over Germany — it is working out which of its cities you are over. Start with water and terrain, because those do not move: a coastal city cannot be confused with an inland one, and a city in a basin reads differently from a city on a plain.
Then use relative size. The expert-rated ones — Munich — are hard precisely because they lack a single unmistakable feature, so you are reading grid texture and building height instead.
Easily confused with
Other Europe cities in the game, which share enough climate and building era to cost you a round.
