Which African country is this
0:01
Whoa, look at this big fella, that is incredible. Right, apparently there should be an African flag somewhere within this photosphere
0:07
So we'll have a little zoom about because I'm not seeing anything. We are seeing Arabic text though, which kind of narrows it down to the top half of Africa
0:13
There's our flag, is it right at the top? I don't see the flag. What's this say? I can't read that
0:17
Well, there's lots of little flags, but I don't recognize any of them. That might just be people's towels thinking about it
0:22
Right, well, as I can't see a flag, I'm just going to have to take a guess. And I reckon I will be going with Algeria
0:29
So let's just guess in the capsule. There we go. Oh, yes 3.2 miles away. All right, next door next door and here we go
0:35
Right, so there that's a flag right might just be a nice wall decoration But I think it's a nice wall decoration that is also a flag and I believe oh my god, it's everywhere
0:43
It's also on the bins as well and the fence. It's on the fence wherever this is. They're very patriotic
0:48
Oh, hang on. Hang on. There's the flag. Oh, it's not a flag. It is just a nice wall decoration
0:53
So I thought it was the flag of Gabon. Yeah, this is the flag of Gabon. So you can see how I got mixed up
0:58
It's actually upside down though. I now realize but here is our actual flag and I've noticed it says Lagos there
1:04
And I think yeah, it says Lagos here as well, which is the capital of Nigeria and that looks a lot like the Nigerian flag
1:10
So we are in Lagos and i'm kind of thinking let's see if we can get a particularly high score
1:16
I can't believe I nearly went with gabon. That would have been awful, right? Is there anything that's going to give much of a giveaway one minute passport
1:22
So it can't be too far from the airport. Maybe police. Oh my god
1:26
Look at that. So the police they sit there and if anything kicks off they get up. That's incredible
1:31
Hang on if I return to the start, this is probably an address isn't it or at least some sort of address
1:35
So we'll have a little look Maybe around the outskirts of the gray bit and maybe probably in a little bit more. So this is the airport
1:42
Yeah, probably around maybe this area. Okay, i'm gonna go about here and let's guess
1:47
No, we were 6.8 miles away. We should have just gone closer to the center. That's annoying. Yeah, fair enough
1:52
Okay, next round. Right. Where's our flag? There's our flag. So we are in Libya. Oh my god. Look at that
1:57
Someone needs to empty that bin as well. They need to get that sort of our prompt door. Right. This is quite a large building
2:02
I like that map that they've got up there. So potentially we might be able to spot this. What's that say
2:08
Tripoli Center. Okay, let's see if we can find the Tripoli Center Oh Tripoli is the capital. So let's head to the center of Tripoli and we'll see if we can find the Tripoli Center
2:17
Central City Hall. Could it be that? It's on a roundabout. Are we on a roundabout
2:21
Um, is that a roundabout? I can't quite see because it's so busy. I think it probably is
2:25
Do you know what? Even if we're not there, I reckon we're very close, so let's just guess. Oh, we were there very..
2:30
Oh 5 points Perfect score Let play the next round Oh look at that car Alright so we should have an african flag somewhere Although we did not see one on the first round So maybe we been diddled again We can move around though Yeah I not seeing the flag
2:44
I do like this purple blossom though. We'll head down this way and we'll see if we can get a better angle
2:49
Is the flag up there somewhere? Zawa is what we can read, but that's it. I like that little orange car as well
2:55
I think they've got Arabic and sort of Latin text. Is that what it's called? I'm sorry if I get that wrong. I'm not very good at my text names
3:01
Pharmacy's so easy. I don't recognize that language. Where's our flag? It's called African Flags, and I don't see any flags anywhere
3:09
Alright, we'll head to the bottom of the street, and we'll have a little look. Flags, flags, flags. Is that a French flag that we see? Pharmacy? That could be French
3:15
Pharmacy. And then I can't quite see this flag, but it looks red, so I'm thinking maybe Morocco
3:20
That could be the Moroccan flag, but I can't get a good angle on it, because we're going down the other side of the street
3:26
Yeah, we're heading further and further away. Was morocco once a french colony you'd think it'd be more likely to be a spanish colony
3:31
I think looking at the text though. It does sound french. Is it northern or southern hemisphere suns in the south
3:37
So it's northern hemisphere. Do we just risk morocco for round four or five
3:41
I feel like we maybe do we've got the latin characters and the arabic characters in all of the google maps names
3:47
Nothing sounds very french around here though, does it? I might go with it But i'll just go a little bit further out in the sticks. All right guess ah
3:53
Ah, it was Morocco. That was a good spot on that little bit of red flag
3:57
But I wish I'd just gone more in the centre. Right, that's twice. I've not just gone more in the centre
4:01
Okay, final round of this game. Because I reckon we do this again. Ooh, that looks like Benin
4:06
I reckon. I think that's Benin. We can't move around anywhere. It's just a photosphere. So I guess I maybe just have to go for it
4:12
Benin on like a big roundabout. All right. Well, let's see if we can find a roundabout in Benin
4:16
Here we go. And we'll definitely go into the capital. Porto Novo
4:20
Okay, right. Where's that roundabout? Get me right in the middle of it. Here we go. Hey, hey, hey, that's a roundabout. Should we just go for it
4:27
I think we go for it. Right, it was Benin, but we were in the wrong area. It was a more obvious main road. 24,739. That's a pretty epic score, actually. I'm quite pleased with that
4:36
Okay, so I've just tried playing a second round of that first map, but there's a few repeat locations
4:40
so I've just found a completely new map. African Capitals. Let's go for it. Here we go. Where are we
4:44
Whoa, look at that cool guy with his sunglasses on. Okay, first of all, we shall look for a flag, but there
4:50
Oh, there's a flag. It's the flag of Ghana. Oh my, I crapped myself. I thought that was a real person
4:55
Okay, all right. Well, we're in Ghana. So let's just zoom in on it. And we are in the capital of Ghana, which is Accra
5:00
And we'll stay quite close, shall we? Shall we have a little look? What's that street say
5:05
Nisabon Atson Road. I mean, that would be nice, wouldn't it? If we could spot Nisabon Atson Road Oh my God look at the insane amount of buildings and houses there That is crazy This area isn actually quite as cramped though is it Oh maybe it is Let me have a look
5:19
Eh, yeah, I guess it is quite cramped. There's a shop promoting continent tours
5:23
So we must just be really close and central, but not too close and central. So we've got like embassies and stuff here
5:28
So maybe we're a little bit more on the outskirts over there. Let's go for a guess
5:32
Oh, it was the other side. Oh no, actually, we were pretty close. 1.6 miles. Cool
5:35
Next one. Where are we here? Oh, not seeing any flags off the bat. We are being stared at quite a bit. Whoa, look at all the goats
5:43
I did not see that coming right air per door doesn't give too much away
5:47
Just yet. Oh, do we have flags here or is that just a carpet? It's just a bleak carpet
5:51
I'd say we're driving more on the left than the right But people are just kind of driving in the middle aren't they? Where is the sun though? The sun is in the south
5:59
So we're in northern hemisphere So it's probably west africa again judging by the look of the place and the people
6:04
There's got to be a flag amongst one of these stalls, surely this text looks french though. So
6:10
French french, nigeria is nigeria. Oh, no, it's not is it? Right. Let's see if we can get to oh
6:15
It is the west senegal. Well, that's not that one west africa as we said and it must be daka
6:20
So whoa, I didn't realize how kind of right on the edge daka was are we in the thick of this
6:25
I guess we must be okay So I don't think you could really describe this as a park but on a map
6:29
It would maybe be a little green square. So yeah, we've got these green squares here
6:33
So let's just go around one of them and I will guess. Oh, was it a different green square
6:38
There's no green square at all. But that's still a good guess. We're 1.3 miles away
6:42
Okay, round three of five. What have we got? All right, we've got Arabic text
6:46
So that narrows it down to North Africa for the most part anyway. And we're in an area with lots of little hotels as well
6:53
Tune Unlock. Do you think Tune would be Tunisia? The text looks French, but I definitely could be wrong
6:59
An area like this. We just need to find like someone promoting like a tour. and then it'll definitely be written for us
7:03
Unfortunately, I'm trying to read some of these, but we travel so fast. Look at us swerving about the place
7:08
Oh, flag, flag, flag. That is Tunisia, isn't it? Yeah, that's the Tunisian flag
7:14
We were right with tuneunlock.com. All right, capital of Tunisia is Tunis
7:19
We've got the center, so let's go off center, maybe around this area and guess
7:25
Oh, that was close, 800 yards away. Okay, let's play around four, five
7:30
Oh look at this chirpy little fella brah you gotta upgrade I would do all that translates to this Christmas pay your normal
7:37
Star times book here and we'll upgrade you to the next highest bouquet. Well, that sounds like a deal
7:42
I can say no to our Express company Oh we must be very close to an airport If we got bus shuttles all over the place I want to see what we can learn without moving Uh not really giving anything away there Ghana he Saco Saco the word Saco there a few times
7:57
Saco. Could Saco be a capital then? We are Southern Hemisphere. Okay, that is fine
8:02
Right, which country has Saco as a capital? It's not South Africa. Not Eswatini
8:07
Not Lesotho. Not Mozambique. Not Zimbabwe. Not Botswana. Not Namibia. A few moments later
8:13
Right, maybe I'm wrong, you know, because I have looked at every African country below the equator and I've not seen Saco
8:19
So maybe Saco just translates to something generic like bus or something like that
8:23
But it's weird because there's- Oh! Ha ha ha ha! Kenya's most affordable network, Nairobi
8:28
I reckon I really complicated that one, I'm not gonna lie. So, Wilson Airport
8:32
Should we go close to Wilson Airport? I reckon we should. Maybe even on this main road
8:37
Alright, I'm gonna guess there. Guess. Uh, what? Two miles away, two miles away
8:41
Are we close to another airport? No, but we were close to a lot of buses
8:46
Hey, we got there, we got there. I was a little bit stupid, but we got there, we got there. We're back and everything just looks French again
8:51
Why is everything French? Definitely looks like North Africa with the climate and the stone
8:56
Orange? Whoa, look at that. You don't see much orange in the UK anymore. I feel like they've had a bit of a decline
9:00
Okay, either way, we will have a nice little scroll about and we will see what we can find
9:05
I like the look of that car with the yellow and the black. It's nice. This is round five of five
9:09
We want to get a close to perfect score here. Ooh, that's some African flag colours
9:14
Where have they gone? No! The whole market's disappeared and there's just goats now
9:18
Forget about it. It doesn't matter. Ooh, hang on. What have we got here? We have the colours of the Chad flag on this Nescafe little shop thing
9:25
Chad would make sense, wouldn't it? So capital of Chad is Jemina
9:29
So if we see the word Jemina anywhere, that'll really help us out. We have a flag there, but that's not really giving too much away
9:35
Can we base it solely off that Nescafe thing? It might have just been pretty colours, like round one
9:40
We've got French flag colors on the poles. We have a lot of goats just knocking about the place. There's a foosball table
9:47
What is going on? Oh, hang on, hang on, hang on. Is that the word Senegal? It's the word Senegal. It's not bloody Chad
9:52
Oh my god, it's that we've been here before. I was just about to say it makes sense with all the goats and I've just walked a bit further down the street and we are at a previous round
10:01
Look, there's the carpet. I can't believe it. Right, well, so it was not by a patch of green, was it? It was just all gray
10:07
I'm gonna go like right there. Why not guess here we go It's right on. Oh, yeah, cuz we've moved where we I was aiming for the last place. All right
10:16
4992 points didn't we get 24,700 or something on the first game? So I think we have actually beaten our points there. I'll take it. Thank you very much for watching subscribe
