This quiz asks where the famous landmarks of the United States are. The map shows the US with 15 empty rings. The tray holds 15 landmarks. You drag each landmark onto the ring at its real place.
Each token shows a photo of the landmark and its name.
How to play
Drag a landmark from the tray and drop it on a ring on the map.
Each landmark is its own target, so a landmark scores only on its own ring.
Nothing is graded while you place. You can move a landmark again as often as you want.
Press Confirm to score all 15 at once.
Tap a token to see its photo larger.
The timer counts up from zero. Give Up scores what you placed and shows where every landmark belongs.
What counts in this quiz
The set has buildings, monuments and natural landmarks. The Grand Canyon, Niagara Falls, Old Faithful, El Capitan, Mount St. Helens and Monument Valley are the natural ones.
Every ring sits at the real coordinates of the landmark. The end screen shows the city and the state under each ring.
Every target is in the lower 48 states, so the Alaska and Hawaii insets never hold a ring.

What's not included, and why
The Statue of Liberty, the Golden Gate Bridge, Mount Rushmore and the Space Needle are not in the quiz. They are already on the world landmark boards, and no landmark repeats between boards. New York is Times Square here, and San Francisco is Alcatraz.
The year a landmark was built does not score. Only the place on the map counts.
Good to know
Old Faithful erupts about every 90 minutes, up to 56 metres high.
The Gateway Arch is as wide as it is tall: 192 metres both ways.
The Kennedy Space Center ring sits at the Vehicle Assembly Building, so large that rain clouds can form inside it on humid days.
El Capitan's granite face rises about 900 metres straight up. The first climb, in 1958, took 47 days.
No prisoner officially escaped Alcatraz. Three men vanished in 1962, and the FBI listed them as drowned.
