Is this a game? Seems more like a polling platform. Where’s the fun?
Fair question (my daugthter insists it’s not a game because there are no winners). It looks like a polling tool, but under the hood it’s built like a social game and the fun comes from speed, unpredictability, and reciprocity. And knowing that at that moment 12 people are looking at your question and answering it.
You’re not just answering polls. You’re put on the spot with weird, intimate, or absurd questions (and you only have a few seconds to vote). While you wait for your own answer, you’re doing Jury Duty which is rapid-fire judgments with no do-overs or explanations. It becomes this mini adrenaline rush, a little like Cards Against Humanity or Wavelength, but stripped down to just decisions.
The “game” is in the tension, the randomness, and the psychology. And that moment when your verdict pops up , knowing 12 total strangers just decided your issue , it weirdly scratches the same itch as multiplayer games or party rounds.
It’s not for everyone, but some people get hooked fast! Anywya, a bit THANK YOU for playing!
