**What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened:**  
_To have the normal world map, but sometimes I get this world map, restart of the game fixes it_

**How often does this happen? When did it begin happening?**  
_It is very rare, but it persists when it happens and I need to restart the game_

**Steps to make it happen again**  
_Sry can’t say but it happens multiple times since I play the game. I was just playing explore 1 for an hour or so and then returned to the world map_
