Bordlr

Bordlr is a free daily geography game. You're given two countries, say Portugal and Vietnam, and you connect them by naming the chain of countries that border each other by land, working inward from both ends until they meet in the middle.

A new puzzle drops every day. Most days are world countries; every third day is a US-states board.

How to play

• Type any country (or US state) that borders either target — or any region already on your path. It lights up on the map.
• Keep adding bordering regions; your chain grows from both ends until they connect.
• Only real land borders count (plus a few famous bridges and causeways). No ocean hops.

Scoring: each solve is scored out of 200: one for matching the route with the fewest regions, one for matching the shortest real-world distance. Chasing both is the real challenge.
