Soccer fans love proving their knowledge—but most trivia apps fail to deliver a truly engaging and competitive experience.

Existing trivia games often suffer from:

Cluttered interfaces that overwhelm new users

Repetitive gameplay with little sense of progression

Lack of emotional connection to real soccer events and tournaments

Poor multiplayer and social engagement mechanics

As a result, users lose interest quickly, leading to low retention and engagement.

Fanatick set out to solve this by creating a soccer-first trivia experience that feels as exciting as the game itself.

Soccer is not just a sport—it’s emotion, rivalry, history, and pride.

Yet many trivia apps:

Treat all topics the same, ignoring iconic tournaments like the Champions League or World Cup

Fail to gamify progress, making wins feel meaningless

Don’t reward daily participation or friendly competition

Miss opportunities to build habits through challenges and leaderboards

For a fan, answering questions should feel like playing a match, not filling out a form.

Without immersive UX and thoughtful game mechanics, even passionate fans drift away.

Fanatick was designed as a match-like trivia experience, combining intuitive UX, soccer-inspired metaphors, and competitive gameplay to keep users coming back.

Minimal welcome animation with a strong brand presence

Quick sign-up via Email, Google, Twitter, or Facebook

Clear value proposition: “Test your soccer knowledge. Compete globally.”

The home screen acts as a control center:

Player profile with avatar, rank, points, coins, and badges

Multiple game modes

Daily Challenge to encourage habit-building

Global & friends-based Leaderboards

Gameplay is structured to mirror an actual football game:

Themed UI based on selected tournament (e.g., Champions League)

Countdown kickoff before questions start

Questions split into First Half & Second Half

Live score tracking (e.g., 5/10)

Lifelines like 50:50 or audience help

Instant visual and haptic feedback for correct and wrong answers

Post-game experience focuses on motivation:

Final score and rank display

Badges or rewards earned

Multiplayer results showing player-vs-player performance

Easy sharing to social platforms

Faster onboarding → higher first-session completion

Match-like gameplay → stronger emotional engagement

Daily challenges & leaderboards → improved retention

Multiplayer & sharing → organic growth through competition
