Dec. 2024

This was a fun sequel to The Test! Some of the questions were the same as the first game, so I'm interested in how that affected answers. My secret word was Closure.

Dec. 2024

Played this right after playing The Test. I liked the variety of styles of questions, but some questions that were clearly from the first game were not really enjoyable for this experience. Interesting that my revelation was similar to that of the last game despite the styles of questions being included in this one. The Secret Word given to me was "Talented".

Dec. 2024

This is the second part of a game that asks you to answer questions truthfully for 20 minutes and gives you a secret word for it. The questions this time are even more silly. It took 36 minutes later and I get another secret word ("deserving", written here so I don't forget if I need it) For me this set was more ... annoying ? ... than the previous one as there were questions where I knew my answer would be badly interpreted. e.g. One, about gold, had for only valid answer the "goody" one, but only because I know the alternatives cannot work in the real world and going "goody" was the only one with a potential benefit. That felt slightly disappointing. edit: I almost forgot. At the end the game tells you things, supposedly advice about your life. The first half felt trivially obvious and the second half completely random and meaningless. I wonder if it's the same for everyone or if the "test" misses the mark. I'm still curious about where all this is going though.

Nov. 2024

I would like the option to save the feedback and the closing thoughts locally, even in a .txt file. I've been writing it down but it takes a lot of time, and I'm worried I may end us losing my notes. Your secret word is: Trust

May 2024

Both games I have played so far have ended surprisingly wholesomely. It's really great how the developers build up to this, making it feel deeply personalised; then utilising Barnum statements to make it feel like it knows you. However if you see through the act, it becomes about as personal as a BuzzFeed "Which Disney princess are you?" quiz. A good bit of fun, but doesn't live up to "unlock secrets to discover how your life can change drastically with just a few, slight modifications"
