Acheter WikiArena PC

Opposant des articles Wikipédia les uns aux autres dans des duels d'arène, prédisez le vainqueur en devinant lequel est le plus long, le plus consulté ou le plus sûr. Chaque round tire deux entrées au hasard, réclamant des jugements rapides sur leurs stats récupérées en direct depuis Wikipédia. Le jeu nécessite une connexion internet, avec un support complet des manettes dual-stick : stick droit pour viser, R2 pour sélectionner. Ce roguelike indie propose le mode Arena pour des runs à 10 victoires avant trois défaites, Endless pour les meilleurs scores, VS WikiBot qui monte en difficulté jusqu'au MK 25, Daily Arena partagé entre tous les joueurs, Streamer VS Chat, et duels locaux 1v1 en hotseat. Du contenu infini puise dans l'archive en perpétuelle expansion de Wikipédia, complété par des stats de run, un suivi meta, une personnalisation pour filtrer les articles, des tweets de combat en un clic, des chronos speedrun optionnels et un support multi-langues. Les fans de trivia visent les high scores et classements dans cette relecture originale des défis de prédiction roguelike.

Let Wikipedia articles battle it out in the arena and predict the winner!



Each round pits two random Wikipedia articles against each other. Your task: Guess which article is longer or gets more views. Oh, and you have to pick the category as well based on what you think is the safer bet.

The game requires an internet connection to retrieve the Wikipedia data.
Fully playable with a dual-stick controller: right stick to point, R2 to click.

Game Modes

• Arena: The "roguelike" mode. Try to reach 10 correct predictions before being wrong 3 times!
  
• Endless: How many predictions can you get right before being wrong 3 times?
  
• VS WikiBot: Play "last one standing" against a WikiBot that progressively gets better at playing the game the more you win. Can you beat WikiBot MK 25?
  
• Daily Arena: An arena run that's the same for all players each day. Do you think you can read the internet's collective mind better than your friends?
  
• Streamer VS Chat: Play against your favorite Twitch streamer (or against your chat if you're a streamer yourself)!
  
• Local 1 VS 1: Challenge a friend to a hotseat duel!

Who would make this and why?

Fabian Fischer (@Ludokultur) created the game to start exploring the "trivia roguelike" genre. Games such as Wordle or Babble Royale show how much the "free depth" of language itself can be used for game design purposes. WikiArena applies a similar approach, using the "internet's meta" as its core language.
