About the game
A trivia game with far countries and foreign cultures as a theme. By visiting different continents, you get questions to answer from each country. All correct answers give points in the form of "NF dollars". Many visits to a country gives you the possibility of gaining a lot of money through the "knowledge ladder" for each country, by answering all of the questions from a card. The money is then multiplied with the number of answered questions for the continent, so some tactics are involved in the game. There are also certain spaces which gives you possibility to answer questions about images, flags or capitals around the world. These answers give extra money. There is a time limit in the game so you only may answer a certain number of questions (right or wrong) for each continent. May also be played with 2-4 teams. The game is based on a Swedish travel reporting program and the title means "Near and Far".
