About Places
What this category covers
Place puzzles range from geography trivia (capitals, rivers, deserts) to softer location language: aisle, porch, terminal, shore. The soft ones trip people up because they feel like objects until you notice every clue is somewhere you can stand.
A quick test: if each clue would sit under a map pin or a floor plan label, think place. Some place answers also work as Things Associated With answers, so check both when the table below looks mixed.
