Summary

You are a member of the Blit Rescue and Tracking Squad (BRATS). Your unit's mission is to rescue Blit whenever he gets captured, which is basically his job. Blit skateboards, crashes, and ends up in a cage. In order to free Blit, you must find a number of keys scattered across different countries in a region. To obtain the keys, the game tests your geographical knowledge. GeoRunner prompts you to select a region of the world (North & Central America, South America, Africa, etc.) and to configure a skill level. The skill level determines a number of settings:* The difficulty of the clues. Early levels simply tell the player to visit a certain country. Later levels challenge the player on capitals or even trivia related to the country.
