Game Component / Multi-Player Quiz

Overview

This multi-player trivia quiz is one of the stickiest web applications we've ever developed with an average 10-minute dwell time per user session. That's about 10 times the time spent on an average webpage! The game pits players against the clock - or against each other in real time - answering a variety of multiple choice text, image and/or video questions.

Peer-to-Peer

The multi-player functionality allows users to visit a 'lobby' where they can challenge other players to a head-to-head game. Optional live chat functionality can be activated allowing players to send messages to one another during a challenge.

Example: Sponsorship Opportunity

History.com used our component to attract sponsorship from Hyundai for 3 years in a row in special reskinned version of the game, Think About History. Text, image and video questions plus a special Automative category reinforce the connection with the automaker.

Example: Data Capture

History.com has been using our multi-player quiz engine to drive user registration to their site with tens of thousands signed up over the lifetime of the application, Timelord. Text, image and video questions promote the programming on this specialist broadcaster.
