I typically go with single player games. Niche stuff casuals rarely play. It’s not a flex or anything, I just a “distinct” taste in gaming

I play the wikipedia game. Start on a random article, click the first link over and over until you reach philosophy. How many clicks did it take? try and beat that
have you guys tried wiki gacha?
holy shit its good gambling
This is awesome!
Though in my first attempt I ended up in an infinite loop. To be fair, the 4th link in the last pages of the loop is philosophy George Krugers -> Dutch East Indies -> Dutch Colonial Empire -> Overseas Territories -> International Politics/Relations -> War -> Armed Forces/Military -> Armed/Weapon -> Kill/Death -> Life -> Matter -> Physical Science -> Natural Science -> Science -> Knowledge -> Descriptive/Declarative Knowledge -> Awareness (4th link here is Philosophy , so not quite) -> Back to Knowledge
But it was a fascinating exercise. Yes I am bored and need something to occupy my mind.
Edit: typo
It doesn’t work that well anymore.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Getting_to_Philosophy
hah yes sometimes the game breaks, you have to restart it
Maybe you should allow skipping links already visited, then it could (?) converge
that sounds like it would work
Hitler -> Political Philosophy -> Philosophy
Well they said “click the first link”
Oh I totally missed that. I suspect you’d end up in a lot of circles tbh.
Heh, I found one starting from the featured article of english wikipedia today. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Krugers I clicked on the first link in the article, not on the page, and also skipped the reference links. Took about 8
yeah you do find yourself clicking in circles sometimes
Now we just need someone to publish a paper on probability of landing in a cycle without philosophy in it, and cycle length statistics
