Field notes

The instructions describe a five-guess sequence with progressively more specific hints, while each guess returns a great-circle distance, an arrow toward the answer, and a closeness percentage. Players can switch off English translations; the page says a result is marked “no translation” if they play the full game that way. It names AeroDataBox, OurAirports, and Wikidata as data sources.
