Wiki Race

Race from one Wikipedia page to another—fastest path wins.

Choose your avatar

Pick from the explorers below or upload your own. Custom avatars last until the lobby closes.

Hosts share the lobby code. Everyone sees the Wikipedia pages once the countdown ends. Click any Wikipedia link in the page to move.

How it works

Create a lobby

Pick a name, create a room, and share the lobby code with friends. No account needed.

Set the challenge

The host picks a starting Wikipedia article and a target destination. Go random for maximum chaos.

Race through links

Navigate from article to article using only in-page Wikipedia links. No search, no back button.

Fastest path wins

The first player to reach the target article wins the round. Compare paths and stats after each race.
