Your Love Style - A choose-your-own-adventure game meets personality quiz

by

Most standard personality tests use a self-reporting mechanism (a questionnaire, a Likert scale) to type someone. But how you answer is completely different than how you act? I wanted to make a quiz that felt more like a scenario game, with context. One that assess how you behave, and then analyzes your results from your actions. Please give it a shot. It's completely free and also doesn't need a log in to see your full results. :)

If you're into visual novels, personality quizzes, and interactive fiction games... give this one a try ~ I don't want to say too much because it'll impact your gameplay. Let me know what results you get! 🌹

already love that it’s free and doesn’t require a login to see the results :) is this based on any specific psychological framework or is it more of a custom behavioral model?

@natallia_novik hiya!

it's a blend of both! the mini-results you get with each play align with existing frameworks (like MBTI or HEXACO). that's so users can rely on similar language they're used to.

at the same time, we're building our own custom behavioural model (which is still rooted in a variety of psychological research)! most of the existing frameworks use self-reporting/likert scales as the input mechanism, and my goal with Trove is to capture the characteristics that can only be shown through behaviour and action.

@herenhuang wow

love the approach of combining familiar frameworks with a behavior-driven model :)

this is a fun way to take a personality quiz! I loved it when it turned into a real text environment. Best of luck for the launch :)

@sam_benhima thank you! glad you enjoyed it ^_^ the plan is to expand into different domains and scenarios ~

Hi! I really enjoyed your scenario-based personality test. It was super engaging, and I actually learned something new about myself. I'd love to know how it was made.

@yam343 how as in code wise? :) vs code + cc! nothing crazy ~ how as in design and ideation? just a love of interactive fiction games and choose your own adventure books as well as buzzfeed quizzes and personality tests! i also think that increasingly the thing that's most important is someone's character... so how do we figure that out and how do we visualize that? :)

I just felt like I took an emotional psychology test. This is a really interesting idea; would you guys turn it into an app and release it on Apple?

@cathy_yeung Yes! I'm actually launching a new domain next (work related tangles), and then building a mobile app around it so we can release daily tangles to play through. Like Wordle ~
