1v1 races through Wikipedia article links.

https://wikibattle.me

Objective

You're thrown into a random article with a random opponent. The first to find their way to the target article wins. Use only links in the articles, no back button.

Articles are randomly selected from the top 5000 most popular articles of the previous week, compiled by Andrew G. West.

After 40 seconds, you will get a hint, consisting of the first 200 characters of the first paragraph of the target article. After 90 seconds, you will also get a list of 25 article titles that link to the target article ("backlinks").

Install

git clone https://github.com/goto-bus-stop/WikiBattle
cd WikiBattle
npm install
npm start

Then you'll be live at localhost:3000!
