Netflix’s efforts into the interactive space and games have so far slow and stable but the Trivia Quest gives Netflix the opportunity to cash the growth trend of daily games such as Wormee, Widdle, and others who have taken the internet with a storm. Unfortunately, what was released was not enough about the sign.
If you miss it, the Trivia Quest is a new interactive special that is presented in the form of a daily quiz that drops new episodes every day throughout April. We call it Netflix’s answer for Wordle and other sites also have it. The show itself is based on
What is conveyed so far is the daily bloated quiz detained by Netflix technology rather than activated by it.
First is the discovery of the show. As a guardian’s note, on the 1st day you have to be “deep in the sub-menu stomach”. In the mobile app, the event does not display in the game tab (also there are no other interactive specials) so that it means unless the algorithm decides you match, you will not have the opportunity to capture this organically.
Given it released every day, you will think they are trying to put the show somewhere stand out throughout April.
This story makes you answer questions to get coins and if you produce enough, you can unlock one of the characters locked in the cage. Every day has a different question theme (Day 1 is about film, day 2 is about music, and day 5 about the show and film Netflix) with normal and hard mode to complete.
Given the quiz goal for you to unlock the character, if you don’t answer the question correctly, you can return to the beginning to complete the quiz again. It’s a good feature but the whole point of quiz is to test your knowledge than your ability to remember answers but it’s nitpicking.
As stated above, the overall package feels bloated compared to what it should be. Every day, you have to watch the same intro and listen to the same quip for every question that becomes tiring. Netflix states that every episode will run you around 9 minutes even though the reality can sometimes be longer.
With worlddle and games like that, the main reason they have become their popularity down to the right of the spices that accompany it. This is activated with a simple share button that allows you to copy and attach your score to social media or messaging applications. There is no such thing in the Quest of Trivia. The only way to do this is to remember your score or a timely screenshot.
Given Netflix has a profile system, you think at least there will be a way to compare how you do other members in your household but unfortunately, nothing.
This criticism also extends to a series of Netflix cellular games, it should be noted, which also operates in their own solo so to speak. In some cases there is a ranked board but chances are you don’t even know what your username is on the ranking board.
Who shows aimed at the current form are somewhat confusing too. Graphic packages and sound lanes are clearly intended for younger audiences but the question is quite difficult. In the first day question, you ask young viewers to find out about the film released decades before their time.
Tracking your progress from day to day is also not easy. You get a brief glimpse of the overall coin you score at the end of each quiz (good to complete normal or hard) but there is no place outside of interactive specials how well you are done. When you can see your progress, you can be too slow and then rush to hard mode or credit order.
In conclusion, the interactive specials seem to be hamstrung by technology that operates at this time. Too bloated to please every day and too short to be fun for families gathering. Maybe in the future, if you play in the living room, each household member you can enter and complete the quiz along with the netflix profile icon each that appears next to the answer they choose.
With everything that said (and this review is very negative), we are happy with the first step here and think with further tweakers, the format can be perfected. We have advocated for Netflix games to have the same impact on the gaming world as Nintendo Wii did and while there was a long way to leave, we thought Netflix could get there.
