WikiMasters in English? Here's the alternative that keeps your collection
Looking for WikiMasters in English? There isn't one yet: WikiMasters is in French, and draws its cards from French Wikipedia only.
Lexicodex is a free browser card game of the same kind, from the makers of Tusmo, and it plays in English: nearly 1.9 million English Wikipedia articles are cards, next to the French ones, and the game follows your browser's language. You bring your WikiMasters collection along, so you don't start from scratch.

Is WikiMasters available in English?
No, as of October 15, 2026. Its interface is French only, with no English version of the site, and its 2,779,316 cards all come from French Wikipedia. A browser's translation will get you through the menus, but the cards stay French articles.
Its creator told the French site Next, on September 25, 2026, that he wants to translate the game, and build a native app, once it is stable. No date has been given.
Lexicodex is the closest thing in English today: the same idea (Wikipedia articles as cards, rarity set by readers), with English Wikipedia's 1.9 million articles, an English interface, and your WikiMasters cards imported.
Your WikiMasters collection comes with you
Lexicodex reads your WikiMasters collection and rebuilds it, in a few minutes, from a computer:
- Create your Lexicodex account (email, Google or Discord).
- On the Import page, drag the "Import into Lexicodex" bookmarklet to your bookmarks bar.
- Open your WikiMasters collection from the page's button, signed in to WikiMasters, and click the bookmarklet.
- Your cards stream in, rarest first; confirm the import with a long press.
The bookmarklet reads your collection in your own browser, with your own session: Lexicodex never sees your WikiMasters password or cookie, and nothing changes on your WikiMasters account. Up to 10,000 cards, rarest first.
Every article found becomes a Lexicodex card, at Lexicodex's rarity (the two games don't count the same way), in the standard finish. These cards are bound to your account: you can show them, file them in albums and decorate them, but not sell or trade them. Articles Lexicodex doesn't have are worth one drop of ink each, up to 1,000, paid after your first 100 packs.
WikiMasters and Lexicodex, side by side
| WikiMasters | Lexicodex | |
|---|---|---|
| Cards | French Wikipedia articles | English and French Wikipedia articles (1.9 million and nearly a million) and Wiktionary words (English and French) |
| Plays in English | - | Yes, cards and game alike |
| Rarity | Based on the article's traffic | Based on the article's traffic, as a twelve-month median: a news spike doesn't make a mythic |
| Packs | 5 cards every 10 minutes, 10 in reserve | 5 cards every 10 minutes, 10 in reserve, the first 10 without an account |
| Copies | Shiny | Reverse, holo, cosmos, prism, and neon, in 3D |
| Duels | General-knowledge quizzes | One theme per round, your card against theirs, scored by an AI |
| Market | Auctions in WikiBidous | Auctions and buy-now, in ink |
| Trades between players | Yes | Yes, up to 20 cards on each side, with counter-offers |
| Collections | Themed showcases | Profile showcase, shareable themed albums |
| Subscription | Pro, CA$9.99 a month | Member, €4.99 a month or €39.90 a year |
| Bring a WikiMasters collection | - | Yes, in a few minutes |
The two games are close: Wikipedia articles in packs, rarity that follows traffic, a market and trades. Lexicodex bets on 3D cards, duels where wit beats trivia, and a second game made of words.
What Lexicodex adds
3D cards in five finishes
Every card flips, shines and tilts under your finger. On top of its rarity, a copy can come out reverse, holo, cosmos or prism, and neon: the card turns black and its picture's outlines light up as tubes.
Duels of wit, not trivia
Build a deck of 50 cards and take on another player over 3 rounds. Each round sets a theme, say "Would make the worst birthday present": you have 30 seconds to play the card from your hand that fits it best, and Lexi, the referee (an AI), scores both cards out of 100. A cheese fondue can beat Napoleon.
Two games in one: Wikipedia and the dictionary
Next to the articles sits a second game of word cards: each word's Wiktionary entry, in French or English, with its definitions and pronunciation. Both share your booster reserve and your ink.
A market and player-to-player trades
Put your duplicates up for auction, with an optional buy-now price, on the market. Or offer a trade to a friend: up to 20 cards on each side; they accept, decline or counter, and the cards travel from one phone to the other in a small 3D scene.
The forge, for the card you're missing
Recycle cards into ink, then spend it at the forge to craft any card in the game, even one you never pulled, or to upgrade a copy to holo, cosmos or prism.
Albums, showcase and Almanac
Sort your cards into themed albums you can share with a link, show off your best three on your profile, climb the leaderboards, and look up any article in the Almanac: its rarity, how many copies exist, who owns them.
Will your legendary be mythic?
Not necessarily: each imported card takes its Lexicodex rarity, set by the article's traffic (the median of its monthly views over twelve months). A WikiMasters legendary usually lands as mythic or epic. The tiers, for French Wikipedia, where WikiMasters cards come from:
- Mythic: over 25,000 views a month, about 740 articles (Napoleon, the Eiffel Tower, Kylian Mbappé…)
- Epic: over 8,400, about 5,100 articles
- Rare: over 2,700, about 21,000 articles
- Uncommon: over 1,600, about 21,500 articles
- Common: every other article above 30 views a month, more than 900,000 of them
Every WikiMasters tier, its view threshold and its Lexicodex equivalent: see WikiMasters rarities explained, with a checker for any article.
Frequently asked questions
Is Lexicodex free?
Yes. You get one 5-card booster pack every 10 minutes, up to 10 in reserve, without paying anything. The membership (€4.99 a month, or €39.90 a year) refills the reserve every 5 minutes and adds 3 Member packs a day; ink and stickers can be bought too. None of it is needed to play.
Do I need an account?
Not to try it: your first 10 packs open without one. After that, an account keeps your cards and unlocks the market, trading and duels: an email address, Google or Discord will do.
Will importing cost me my WikiMasters collection?
No. The bookmarklet only reads it, from your browser: nothing changes on WikiMasters, and you can keep playing there.
Why are some of my cards missing?
Lexicodex only makes cards from articles with enough readers (at least 30 views a month, as a median): WikiMasters' rare cards almost all make it, many of its commons don't. Each of those is worth a drop of ink, up to 1,000.
Can I import from a phone?
The import needs a computer, where you can drag a bookmarklet to the browser's bar. After that, your cards are everywhere, phone included.
Is there an English version of WikiMasters?
Not as of October 15, 2026: WikiMasters is in French and draws its cards from French Wikipedia. Lexicodex is the closest thing in English: same idea (Wikipedia articles as cards, rarity set by readers), with nearly 1.9 million English Wikipedia cards and an English interface.
Is Lexicodex available in English?
Yes. The game opens in English if that's your browser's language, and you can switch between English and French in its settings. Cards come in both languages too: articles from the English and French Wikipedias, words from the English and French Wiktionaries.
Is Lexicodex affiliated with WikiMasters?
No. Lexicodex is an independent game published by Tusmo; it is affiliated with neither WikiMasters nor the Wikimedia Foundation.
