Description by Franco apps(from Google Play)
The Wiki Game is a Wikipedia race game: get from one article to another by clicking hyperlinks only. Compete with your friends, explore, have fun and learn - all at once!
HOW IT WORKS
You are given two Wikipedia articles. Your goal is to reach the target article from the starting one only by clicking the blue hyperlinks on each page. Race the clock and try to win in the least amount of time and the fewest clicks!
Every round is a little Wikipedia speedrun: plan your path, click the right links, and dive down the rabbit hole of human knowledge. It is the perfect brain game for trivia and quiz lovers who want more than multiple-choice questions.
GAME MODES
* Daily Challenge: a new wiki race every day - compete on today's leaderboard! * Levels: more than 50 challenging levels, from easy races to expert runs with articles you have never heard of. More levels coming to The Wiki Game soon! * Challenge Friends: add your friends, send & receive challenges, and prove who is the fastest wiki racer. * Practice Mode: sharpen your skills with random articles, or choose your own topics & articles.
WHY YOU WILL LOVE THE WIKI GAME
* Learn something new every race - history, science, geography, sports, pop culture: the whole encyclopedia is your game board. * A knowledge game that is actually fun: no boring quiz questions, just you and the links. * Simple, clean interface - read real Wikipedia articles while you race. * Great for students, families and kids, as well as trivia night champions.
Whether you call it a wiki race, wikiracing, the Wikipedia game or a Wikipedia speedrun, one thing is certain: "just one more race!"

Comments on The Wiki Game - Wikipedia Race for Android
★★★★★Yoav Franco· May 10, 2020
Great educational game based on Wikipedia. Challenging levels, great design and multiplayer is entertaining.
★★★★☆StellarToast· Aug 25, 2023
Amazing but I have a suggestion, could you run ads after the level has been completed, having the trigger for an ad being when you press next level and skip level. The ads can interfere with score, time and sometimes crash the run, forcing you to start over again.
★★★★☆LCM 11235· Aug 12, 2020
I used it with two friends, one have it in Spanish (we speak Spanish), I have it in English, and the third one have it in English, but he must search by the scientific names... Please fix it
★★★★★Ian Lever· Sep 17, 2017
Educational, fun and hard! I love it. It really makes you think.
★★☆☆☆Ellen Le Callonnec· Dec 30, 2025
Buggy. The page name you arrive on May be your target however if the link you click on was the plural (e.g. birds instead of bird) despite being on the correct page the game will nor recognize it and acknowledge level completion. At the completion of level page, if you use the back button, your points (and level completion) are not saved
★★☆☆☆Άγγελος Μακρινός· May 30, 2021
You can't see the history of your games and how many steps/points did you get for each one. Edit: there's a bug. It doesn't finish if you reach the target article when coming from an article that redirects you there. You have to click another random link and then go back for it to work. Edit 2: The "go to main article" links that exist under some categories on some articles don't appear. (how am I supposed to go to the "Linux gaming" article if the link doesn't appear in the "Linux" article?)

Can't even start the game, just downloaded it, and it says network error? Really.
★☆☆☆☆Alex x· Oct 6, 2019
Tried to do multiplayer but there we're lots of error messages, and you can also back out and go back in to get more answers and thus cheat against the other. It scrolls slowly on my friend's phone but wiki app and browser scrolls fine there.
