A minimap that moves with you
Keep your live position and heading in view while you play. Resize the minimap, zoom in and put it where it fits your HUD.
Pick a destination. Follow it in game.
Track cave entrances, explorer notes and obelisk terminals with direction and distance right in your game. Choose a compass bar, guidance around your crosshair or a movable panel.
Find your friends
Share your position with friends and tribemates who connect using your code. See their latest location and follow them in game. Sharing is opt-in and you can stop it at any time.
The full interactive map
Resource nodes, caves, drops, spawns, notes and artifacts as toggleable layers. Find what you need without leaving the game.
1500+ building templates
The whole template library, open next to your build instead of on a second monitor.
Taming tracker with timers
Start a tame, keep the timer on screen, and get the food and narcotic counts without alt-tabbing.
203 creatures, 14 categories
Stats, taming times, drops and calculators for every creature, plus the full item and structure reference.
Custom crosshair
Draw your own crosshair over the game for weapons that do not have one.
FPS, GPU, CPU and RAM HUD
Performance in a small corner overlay, positioned wherever you want it. Second-screen support for multi-monitor setups.
Arcade
Something to do while a 4 hour tame ticks down.
More features are on the way, including the rest of the tools from this site.
What it looks like in game
Setup takes a minute
Install
One installer. It sets up Overwolf and Wikily together.
Launch ARK
The overlay attaches itself. Nothing to configure.
Press Shift + F9
The menu opens over the game. Press it again to close.
Before you install
Is the Wikily overlay free?
Yes. The overlay is free to download and free to use. There is nothing to buy inside it.
How does friend tracking work?
Sign in to use friend sharing, enable it and create a connection code for a friend. Only connected people can see the position you share. You can stop sharing or revoke access at any time.
How do I open the overlay in game?
Press Shift + F9 while ARK is running. You can change the hotkey in the app settings if it clashes with something else.
Which platforms does it support?
Windows PC only, for ARK: Survival Ascended. The overlay runs on Overwolf, which does not exist on console or mobile.
Is it allowed, and is it safe?
It runs on Overwolf, a platform built for in-game overlays that reads nothing from the game process beyond what its public API exposes. It does not modify game files.
How do I uninstall it?
Remove it from the Overwolf app list, the same way as any other Overwolf app. Nothing is left behind in your ARK install.
Live tracking is here
Follow your position on the minimap as you play. Choose a cave entrance, explorer note or terminal to track, or connect with a friend who shares their position. Your direction and distance stay in view while you explore.
Put the wiki inside the game
Free on Windows. Press Shift + F9 once ARK is running.
