About the Paint by Nation leaderboard

Paint the flags of all 195 countries from memory: pick a paint, tap the flag, submit when it looks right. Three lives, no clock, Easy or Hard.

This board ranks every signed-in player’s best verified score in Paint by Nation of all time. Each player is listed once, with their best run: a better run replaces it, a worse one leaves it where it is.

How a run scores

  • Keep going: a flag with a mistake costs one of your three lives, and the run ends with the third, or when you have painted every flag.

How to climb the board

  • Start with the color you are surest of: once one part is right, the layout of the rest usually comes back to you.
  • Protect the streak on the famous flags at the start: five perfect flags in a row are worth a 500-point bonus on every following perfect flag.
  • On a computer, keep your fingers on the 1 to 8 keys and Enter and the mouse on the flag: it is much faster than clicking the pots.

Periods, ties and checks

All-time keeps each player’s best since the board opened. This week starts again every Monday at midnight New York time.

Equal scores share a place, and the run finished first is listed first.

A run records only your inputs. Our server plays them again with the same game code, and only a score the replay matches is verified. A person also checks the top 10 scores.

The board lists every player, guests under their generated name. Sign in with Google or Apple from a result to keep your scores and pick your own name. Bots, scripts and other automated or assisted play are not allowed (see our terms of use).
