A fun game!
I'm not convinced the AI took a particularly sensible path. It would be interesting to see how well different prompts/models succeed at this task.
Thank you! I intend on adding this functionality (i.e. model picker, prompt editor, etc..) to the site, but if you want to experiment yourself you can clone/fork the repo I made with the core agent engine: https://github.com/yarv/wikigame-agent
A site I made where you can race an AI agent (gpt-5.4-nano with low reasoning effort, plus fair-play scaffolding) from one wikipedia page to another, using only links. Lowest number of hops wins! Free to play the daily game, and sign up (still free) to play 3 custom games a day of your choice
