Abstract. Mappings verification is a laborious task. The paper presents a Game with a Purpose based system for verification of automatically generated mappings. General description of idea standing behind the games with the purpose is given. Description of TGame system, a 2D platform mobile game with verification process included in the gameplay, is provided. Additional mechanisms for anti-cheating, increasing player's motivation and gathering feedback are also presented. Example of the system usage for verification of mappings between WordNet synsets and Wikipedia articles is presented. The evaluation of proposed solution and future work is also described.
