ashgabat - I can, but I will not. I explained why, but have provided links to lots of other island games, most of which put the dot on the island. In this game you can see the shape and size of the islands. Thanks for understanding.

There have been many islands of the world games here, but this one attempts to show the 27 largest islands without covering their coastlines, in their proper relationship to the nearest continent, and on a world projection where relative area is not distorted.
A compendium of previous island of the world games here:
Tickman brought us (The 25) Most Populous Islands
Doffa brought us The (30) Largest Islands of the World
alPINIA brought us 14 importantISLANDS (or island groups) OF THE WORLD...
Wentu brought us the Alphabet of the largest Islands and Historically divided islands
paulfunI brought us The world - Fifteen islands
(his choice)
Yonja claimed 15 to be Paradisiac Islands
mamataje: 20 Largest Islands of the world
Vegardso: 37 in the iga assn; Islands around the world
And dozens more are more regionally based, focusing on islands in particular parts of the world.
