For some reason the game is highlighting the correct answers for me before I click them.

It's a hint. It is shown every 4 seconds if you're not clicking on anything.

Do you think it would be better if hints were a separate button?

Yes please! It’s a great game, but it’s giving unwanted spoilers.

Give a Hint button where you “pay” some time to use it.

Thanks for making it!

Done! Now you need to press the "Show hint" button.
Make it so that it’s always there so you don’t have to wait, but you pay in time. Otherwise if you’re like me and don’t know many flags but you’re trying to learn, you sit there waiting for the button to appear.
That's an interesting idea.

On the contrary, relying on the "Show hint" button all the time is not that great. Why not to try and guess while the button is hidden?

Thank you very much!! Will play some more now :))
Perfect, that was my thought as well! Will do
