The November 1, 2026 puzzle ran from the Statue of Liberty at 93 m to the Eiffel Tower at 330 m — about 4× apart, drawing on landmarks. The pair furthest apart was round 1: the Roman Colosseum is 1.7× as big as an American football field.
Answer: Roman Colosseum — 189 m. The Roman Colosseum measures 189 m (length / span), which is 1.7× as big as the reference, an American football field at 109.7 m.
The ancient amphitheatre is roughly 189 metres along its longest axis.
Common miss: players tend to compress the Roman Colosseum when it sits beside an American football field — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: Statue of Liberty — 93 m. The Statue of Liberty measures 93 m (height), which is about 1.2× smaller than the reference, a Saturn V rocket at 110.6 m.
The 93 metres include the pedestal and the torch.
Common miss: players tend to inflate the Statue of Liberty when it sits beside a Saturn V rocket — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: Washington Monument — 169.3 m. The Washington Monument measures 169.3 m (height), which is about 1.1× smaller than the reference, the Space Needle at 184 m.
The marble changes shade a third of the way up, where construction stopped for over twenty years.
Common miss: players tend to inflate the Washington Monument when it sits beside the Space Needle — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: Eiffel Tower — 330 m. The Eiffel Tower measures 330 m (height), which is about 1.3× smaller than the reference, the Empire State Building at 443.2 m.
The Eiffel Tower reaches about 330 metres including its antenna.

The clock tower commonly called Big Ben is 96 metres tall.
