Worldle is another Wordle-inspired game, but this one requires you to guess the country or territory for the day instead of a word. The game’s default mode shows you the outline of the country and gives you six guesses to solve the answer.
When you make a guess and it is not the correct answer, you will be told how far away the guessed country is from the answer and the direction you need to look. If you would like a more difficult challenge, try one of two other modes, both of which can be found in the game’s settings and will affect the next puzzle.
The first option is to remove the image of the country entirely, leaving you to guess at random. Your guesses will still show you how far away you are from the actual country and which direction you must travel to find the answer, which means you can make more educated guesses going forward.
The other option rotates the country’s image, so it may appear upside down or sideways on the map, but you won’t know which way it is. This will confuse you and make guessing the country a bit more challenging.
There are some bonus rounds that have been added to the game and we are also covering the answers to these, which are at the bottom of the article.

What is the Worldle 278 Country Answer Today? (10/26/22)
The answer to the Worldle 278 country today is…
SUDAN!
FUN FACT: Sudan is home to more pyramids than Egypt. When it comes to ancient pyramids, Egypt gets all the credit. But Sudan is actually home to over 200 pyramids — more than Egypt — built by the ancient Nubian civilisation from as early as 2500 BC.
The UNESCO-listed Archaeological Sites of the Island of Meroe is probably the country’s most famous site. The site is home to 100 pyramids dating from the 8th century BC to the 4th century AD. While the pyramids are a little smaller than their Egyptian cousins, they are equally decorative, featuring elements from Pharaonic Egypt, Greece, and Rome.
The UNESCO-listed Gebel Gebel Barkal and the Sites of the Napatan Region is another popular pyramid site. Encompassing five different archaeological zones, the site features tombs, pyramids, temples, burial mounds and palaces dating back to 900 BC.
