The encyclopedia racing game
Wikipedia Race Route Explorer
Optimal paths between articles, computed from Wikipedia's real link graph.
Every route below is a real Wikipedia race: a start article, a target article, and the shortest chain of links connecting them. We solve each one against Wikipedia's actual link graph, so the click counts are true optimal paths — the score to beat. Open any route to study the path, then race it yourself in Custom Route mode.
