US States Game: Find All 50 States on the Map

How to play

Find the state. A road sign shows a state name. Click that state on the map. You get three tries, and a miss shows you the right answer.
Capitals. One state lights up. Pick its capital from four choices. Watch out: the biggest city is often not the capital.
Daily 10. Ten states, the same for every player today. Keep your streak going and send your score to friends.

Tiny states on the East Coast have their own boxes out in the ocean, so you can click them on a phone.

Learn one region at a time. The Northeast has 9 states, the Midwest 12, the South 16, and the West 13. Pick a region above and play it until you get every state on the first try.
Use the Four Corners. Utah, Colorado, Arizona, and New Mexico meet at one point. Find that spot and the Southwest falls into place.
Count the neighbors. Tennessee and Missouri each touch eight states. Maine touches only one.
Do not trust the big city. New York's capital is Albany, California's is Sacramento, and Illinois's is Springfield.
