I built a game that replaces doomscrolling with quizzes, hidden history, and brain puzzles

说明与用途

CurioQuest 用互动测验和谜题取代无休止的滚动，激励用户学习并获得 XP。

问题

Users spend excessive time doomscrolling, leading to unproductive consumption of content.

结果

CurioQuest replaces doomscrolling with interactive learning, providing a progression system, daily streaks, and leaderboards that motivate users to engage with educational content.

工作流

• 1. User visits https://curio-quest-phi.vercel.app/
• 2. User selects a game mode (Forgotten Wonders, Science Fact Lab, Brain Games, World & Tech Pulse)
• 3. User answers quiz or puzzle questions
• 4. System awards XP, updates streaks, and displays progress on leaderboards
• 5. User can view daily news cards with citations and source links

证据

I kept catching myself doomscrolling, so I built something to replace it: CurioQuest, a free web game where curiosity earns you XP.

Everything feeds one progression system: XP, unlimited levels, daily streaks with a calendar, 12 badges, 32+ collectible museum relics, and two leaderboards (points and streaks).

Live news: a server-side endpoint calls Gemini with Google Search grounding, so cards come with citations and source links
