We’re right now developing something we call a Self Quiz (a.k.a. Cosmo Quiz or Personality Quiz), in essence a type of quiz that is focused on determining (for example) the personality of a player, rather than testing knowledge of a specific topic. A typical example found on Facebook is ‘Which Star Wars character of the light side are you?‘
The first hard-coded test of a Planeto self quiz
These quizzes are not (and will never be) at the core of the Planeto experience, but we decided to add them for two specific reasons:
- Many people, including us, think these quizzes are often fun; and
- They can be very viral, spreading quickly between friends on Facebook. It’s a perfect way to get people introduced to Planeto — they get into the game through a Self Quiz, and then hopefully we can get them started on the deeper Planeto experience. Sneaky, aren’t we!
And of course, anyone can create their own Self Quizzes as well. Hopefully we can deploy this live soon, maybe already next week. Stay tuned!
By the way, we’re a little unsure about what to call this type of quiz. Right now we’re calling it a Self Quiz internally, and use ‘Personality Quiz’ in the interface, but that doesn’t feel completely correct since it can be about much more than personality. Any suggestions?
