Instructify

Think you are better than me at Tetris? Chances are likely that you are NOT, but you might fare better with MapMSG.com’s Stateris. It’s exactly what it sounds like it should be - you use states and countries instead of ‘L’ pieces and little ‘t’s. Start off with the U.S.A. and try all three skill levels - hard being, well, pretty hard. Once you think you have it all figured out, give Japan or Africa a run for their money. Heck, you can even give the counties in South Carolina a whirl.

As a nice addition to the site and for more fun with maps, you can also personalize real satellite maps and get a chance to play God with your own text and images in various places in the world. Try out writing your own smoke signals, crop circles, or Hollywood sign. These games and activities are useful for students of all age groups, and Stateris puts an added challenge on a classic favorite game. - JEREMY S. GRIFFIN
