  • Worth it??

    It’s seems fun, but since it’s a paid app, it would be nice to have some app updates. It looks like the last update was at least two years ago, which leads to some problems. For example, it isn’t sized properly for an iPhone 12. And security details are no longer available.

    With in-app purchases, it makes me wonder about the value behind the price (since Wikipedia is ostensibly supposed to be free).

  • For 2 dollars, it’s disappointing.

    The charts on the pages do not scroll. This is a huge problem because it cuts off content that can be used to solve the level. In addition, the skip to next area button doesn’t work.

    It would be wonderful to have multiplayer in this game. It would also be really nice to have a table of contents LIKE YOU HAVE IN NORMAL WIKIPEDIA ARTICLES. I shouldn’t have to scroll through the whole thing to get to one part.

  • Repulsed

    I haven’t written a review in years but this was so infuriating that I just have to. There’s no multiplayer function, therefore it’s SO much less fun than the original but they have the gall to still charge $2 for it?

    Do not buy this under any circumstances. If I save even one person from forking over $2 they could have spent on a snickers bar, I’ll be happy. Just play on a desktop

  • Doesn’t make sense sometimes

    Asked to go from wine to Jesus..... scroll down, find Jesus in one click.... gives me 2 coins instead of 3 and says I’m 3 clicks over the perfect path.. no
  • Web version has bugs too but much better than app

    There’s no scrolling to the right/left so some pages are cut off if there’s a table or embedded bullet points.
  • I really want to love this game

    Unfortunately this game has some bugs. For example, if the goal word is “Tango” and I click on just that word in the Wikipedia article, it has been since been renamed to Tango (Argentina) so it doesn’t work. So I click another “Tango” in the article and it redirects me to Tango (dance)...still not the correct Tango apparently. So I click another Tango and finally it recognized it. By then I am getting the lowest score because of all the extra clicks. This game needs to updated with Wikipedia semi regularly. Also could you let us know how many clicks are in the perfect path while we’re trying to figure it out! Fingers crossed that there will be some support for this game and it won’t just die off.

    Thanks, but that is how Wikipedia is really structured, eg there is an article which is precisely "Tango" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tango), but there are also more "specific" articles like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argentine_tango that you are hitting before you get to the actual goal. I hope you reconsider your review, as it is quite low for something that is out of our control. Thanks again though for the feedback.
  • Eh

    It looks interesting in the website, but quickly gets boring
  • Delivers, But Could Be More

    This game gives you the Wiki Game, as promised. It's polished, it works great. Plenty of single-player fun. That's just it though, I know there's a multiplayer variant online. I think if multiplayer features were available this would get my five stars.

    Appreciate the feedback. You mention the app "is polished and works great", and has "plenty of single-player fun" - and that's just what the app was made to be: for those who wanted a single player version of the online multiplayer game, so it's a bit disappointing/confusing you end up rating it relatively low. Thanks for the input though.
  • Fun Game, Please Fix

    Just one quick note, on iPad the results screen is cut off and you can read the lower section that mentions something about the perfect path.
    Fun little game though.

    Hi, thanks very much for the feedback, and the issue you mention is now fixed! Hopefully with this fix we can earn that 5th star in your review :)
  • Love it!!!

    Wish there were more levels and more games like it!!!
