Trivia Application

A multiplayer trivia web-application targeted at providing customizable quick-deployment trivia games. This application has been used for training and marketing in the insurance and automotive industries.

Informational cards can be interspersed throughout games to provide supplemental fact-based training in addition to the questions. Leaderboards and "improve your score" support are designed to increase player engagement through competition. The administrative panel includes detailed analytics from the full game down to the individual question.
