We made a puzzle with Wikipedia!

We’ve created a very special puzzle to celebrate 25 years of Wikipedia – and there are just 250 available worldwide!

Wikipedia 25 is a limited-edition 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle inspired by the scale, spirit and cultural significance of Wikipedia: the world’s biggest knowledge-sharing project.

The idea behind the puzzle is simple. Wikipedia is a bit like a giant jigsaw. Millions of individual pieces of knowledge, added by people all over the world, coming together to create something extraordinary.

Wikipedia asked us if we could turn that idea into a real puzzle to celebrate their 25th birthday. Something beautiful, thoughtful and satisfying to piece together, but also a tribute to the readers, editors, translators, volunteers and knowledge-lovers who help keep information free for everyone.

The artwork

Created by illustrator Rushati Chowdhury and drawing on crowdsourced suggestions, the artwork features highlights of human achievement, discovery and cultural memory.

Look closely and you’ll find little nods to science, language, literature, exploration, nature, ancient history, technology... and some wonderfully weird corners of the internet.

It’s designed to feel like falling down your favourite Wikipedia rabbit hole: one detail leads to another, one idea sparks the next, and suddenly you’re completely absorbed. 

Many contributors

Just like Wikipedia itself, this puzzle is made from many pieces, many perspectives and many contributors.

It celebrates the joy of shared knowledge: the strange facts, big discoveries, tiny details and collective effort that make Wikipedia such an extraordinary part of the web..

As Steve Vickers, co-founder of Cloudberries, puts it:

“Wikipedia is like a huge puzzle, with millions of pieces of knowledge added by people worldwide. Turning that extraordinary idea into a real jigsaw – one that looks and feels amazing – felt like the perfect way to celebrate 25 years of free knowledge.”
