--------------

1v1 races through Wikipedia article links.

[https://wikibattle.me][WikiBattle]

### 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][Top 5000 pages].

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!
