The Wiki Game



To play the wiki game you need to think fast, for example if you were trying to find the word Nero you will go to a page with blue words that are links and you have to click a word and it will take you to another page and you have to keep clicking on links until you find the word Nero or a different word that you have to find. You have to try and get the lest amount of clicks possible to win the game, if you get 10 clicks for example and you find the word you will probably come 5th or 6th because you have had a lot of clicks.

Here is a pathway to one of the words (Nero): Haripurwa → Nepal → South Asia → Indo-European languages → Roman Empire → Nero  

Here is a link to the game: the wiki game

There are 40 clicks on each card, if you get all 40 clicks you get a bracelet with starts on it and if you get three cards you get a stars badge. If you are being naughty you get a verbal warning from the teacher but if you are doing something good that day you will still receive a click on your card but if you get caught again you will get your name in the board (on the same day) and if you do something good the teacher will decide if you get a click or not, but if you get a cross next to your name you will not get a click.
