Questions

Is WikiCards the official WikiMasters app?

No. WikiCards is an independent mobile game, not affiliated with WikiMasters, WikiGacha, Wikipedia or the Wikimedia Foundation. It is built for short sessions on a phone: packs, collection and quiz.

Is it free?

Yes. No account, no ads, no in-app purchases. You start with three packs and each new UTC day adds two, up to a reserve of five. Your first win of the day can earn a bonus pack.

Which languages?

English and French. The interface, cards and questions follow your phone's language.

Where do the cards come from?

Wikipedia articles and free images from Wikimedia Commons. The catalogue grows every day after content and licence checks. Every card shows its credits and can be reported from the game. Automated screening can make mistakes.

Where is my progress saved?

On your phone. No account needed. New cards and photos need a connection.
