The Missing Map: Central and South America
Find the countries of Central and South America, plus some from the Caribbean.
I tilted the map to make it fit, so I added the thin red sinuosity at the upper right to provide a reference to judge the tilt. (That's the southern US border, by the way.)
See game comments for more detail.

Tilting this makes it more difficult in very enjoyable ways! Another great game.

The tilting adds a devious dimension!

This is based on a fairly standard map of the region. I placed the dots close to the centers of countries rather than at extremities. They may not be at the exact centers, especially of the more irregularly- shaped nations. Still, they will be close enough as to not be misleading.
The countries are almost the same as in David's original South America game on this site:

The main differences are the inclusion of Mexico and a few differences of choice in Caribbean nations. So David's game would be a good warm up for this.
I tilted the map here so that the (now missing) map would fit, or nearly so. If I just used the dots, they'd fit, but not the map. I felt that would be misleading, hence the tilt. But since the tilt introduces it's own perplexity, I included the southern US border as a guide. Use that to judge the tilt and for a starting frame of reference.
