Brewster Jennings Protects America

Brewster Jennings Protects America is geography game that uses the Google Maps API and seems to be based, at least in part, on Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego. The basic plot of the game is that terrorists are planning to blow something up and it's your job to track the little bastards down. Like Carmen Sandiego, you do this by picking up clues at each leg of the search.

The game has 6 variable length and difficulty settings, but if you know anything about geography and history, you should have much problem with this. You can also choose between a global mission or one just within the borders of the United States.

Still, it's a fun time-waster. Kinda funny, though; I've played 3 or 4 games so far and haven't had a reason to venture into the "fly-over" states. What's the lesson there?

The game also has a development blog where you can track new additions and changes.
