WOKwiki is a Wikipedia app with a new added layer of quizzes for each wikiarticle, thus turning Wikipedia into a game. Any WOKer can take a quiz alone or challenge a friend, making learning fun.

WOK is short for World of Knowledge and just as Wikipedia is made by the contributions of volunteers creating and editing articles, the multiple choice questions in WOK are made by the WOKers. Already, by the launch date, over 268,000 English questions are in the database, tagged by keywords relating all questions to the relevant Wikipedia article.

WOKwiki is a totally FREE app for anyone to download in the iTunes App Store or from Google Play and just like Wikipedia it contains no ads.
