What makes you say that? I'm in the USA and I don't think I've ever seen a meerkat, wombat, or a newborn panda cub in person. I think that was partially the point of the game though, wasn't it?

I don't understand that at all.

There's the Statue of Liberty, and I guess a basketball hoop..?

Meanwhile there's a meerkat, egg, power plant turbine, Big Ben, wombat, panda, Chichen Itza and the Pyramid of the Sun, none of which are remotely USA centric.

Some of the other games on this site use the metric system and I struggled so you could be off the mark on USA. I'd guess Australian centric based upon the animals and metric system

I felt that too honestly. The concepts, the objects somehow hinted at this
