This is greatly enjoyable. It reminds me of Hans Rosling's little quizzes which he claims show that chimpanzees (random pickers) are smarter than professors on his hand-picked questions. It would be cool if it had an adaptive difficulty based on how good you are getting, giving you questions that are closer and closer in value.
Thank you for playing, I'll check out Hans Roslings' quizzes and add an adaptive difficulty feature for future development. I currently have a minimum difference of like 20% to make the game reasonable.
Even better would be an advanced user setting, allowing to set the difference percentage. I find it illuminating to answer questions with 100% (or more), when one answer is at least double the other -- and still make mistakes.
The is surprisingly fun. One improvement would be to show the relative difference visually when it tells you the answer, like in bar chat form so at a glance you can tell how different they are.
Thank you for the suggestion, I'll have to figure out how to show the difference when the other value is bigger/smaller, and also when it's dramatically different (i.e. 152x bigger or smaller)

I'll workshop an advanced user setting that can control difficulty for future updates, I may add something like a topic toggle as well

Cool game, but you need more data. Would be interesting to pull from current events also.
This is awesome! Have really been enjoying the game.
Ahh, this about the US only. Not America.
Its about the Gulf of America. Arguments persist about its Easternmost boundary but in the west it extends from Baja California to British Columbia.
