Farflung is a free daily geography game where the obvious answer is the weak one. Every day brings five prompts, like a landlocked country in Africa or a country whose capital starts with M, and you get 60 seconds to pin a country on the world map for each. Right answers that few other players think of are worth more: a common pick carries you 40 km, a Farflung pick 100 km, up a 500 km mountain.
