Farflung Wander mode
People search for Farflung Wander mode because some unofficial sites list it next to Daily and Classic, described as play with no clock. On the official game you do not need a separate mode for that: the daily expedition shows “No clock · take your time” unless you switch the clock on.
Is Wander mode unlimited?
On the unofficial sites, Wander is a way of playing, not an endless official mode. The official game has no unlimited mode yet. Read Farflung unlimited: does it exist?
Farflung Classic mode
On unofficial copies, Classic means racing a clock on each pin. On farflung.game, open Difficulty in the menu and turn on the 60-second clock. With it on, a pin you have placed on a country drops by itself when time runs out, and if no pin is on land the prompt scores nothing.
The official daily expedition
Five prompts a day, one country pin each, scored from 40 km (Common) to 100 km (Farflung). A new expedition opens at midnight local time and you get one try. Rules and scoring are in how to play Farflung, and today's hints are in the daily answers.
Practice round and difficulty
The practice round gives one untimed prompt you can repeat without using your daily game. Difficulty can hide the country name under your pin, hide borders, or add the 60-second clock.
