Tips:

Explore different topics: Don't stick to one subject area.

Look for connections: Try to find links between different pages.

Use the search bar: If you're having trouble finding a specific topic, use the search bar to jump to it.

Avoid getting stuck: If you're about to click on a red link, try a different link instead.

Have fun: The most important thing is to enjoy the game and learn new things along the way!

Variations:

Timed game: Give players a set amount of time (e.g., 30 minutes) to reach the highest score.

Themed game: Restrict the topics that players can explore to a specific theme (e.g., history, science, art).
