Play the Game

We give you two wiki pages: A and B.

You tell us the route you took to get from A to B. You can only move from A to another wiki page linked to it. 

So from curling you can jump to all sorts of topics, from shuffleboard to late medieval. It’d be up to you to decide which is the better move to make if you’re aiming for a destination like neurotransmitter. 

Just out of interest, it took us 10 links to get from curling to neurotransmitter by means of late medieval: curling > late medieval > Italian renaissance > Francis Bacon > theosophy > occult > pseudoscience > Carl Sagan > amino acids > neurotransmitter.

Shortest route (fewest links clicked) wins.

Simple!
