Ready to start?

Imagine standing at A, facing B. Choose where C is relative to you.

Help

Stay at A and turn to face B. B is now straight ahead of you. Locate C using your own front, back, left, right or diagonal directions. The map stays still with north at the top; only your imagined viewpoint turns. On the hardest level, the direction from A to B lies between the eight compass directions.

Each round has six questions and no time limit. Choosing an answer locks it. Review the steps, then move to the next question. Finish all six to save the round. Active time includes reviewing the steps, but does not count time when this page is hidden. Speed does not affect your score.

Use Tab and Enter or Space to choose an answer. The number keys also select answers, except when another control is focused. After an answer, Enter goes to the next question.
