Categories make quizzes easier to build and easier to play. They also help you avoid the common mistake of writing ten versions of the same question.

In BestieScore, categories are useful because they help you control difficulty and keep the experience varied.

The BestieScore philosophy behind this

A well-structured quiz feels faster because players understand the rhythm, even when the questions get harder.

Quick takeaways

  • Use categories to create variety without losing focus.
  • Move from surface facts into deeper shared context.

  • Balance fun prompts with score-separating prompts.

How to use this in BestieScore

  • Start in `/app/quizzes/new` and let the AI builder draft a first version from your topic.
  • Trim the quiz down to clear multiple-choice questions so the leaderboard reflects attention, not ambiguity.
  • Publish the quiz to the rings you want, then share the link or save the story image from the quiz dashboard.
  • Review results, replay behavior, and score spread after people play, then edit the quiz if the ranking feels too flat.

Category 1: Favorites

Favorites create easy entry points. They help people settle into the quiz and establish confidence early.

Category 2: Habits and routines

Habits are strong because people learn them by actually spending time with you. They are perfect for BestieScore.

Category 3: Shared moments

These questions reward memory and attention. They are especially good for friend groups, roommates, or classmates with a common history.

Category 4: Reactions and personality tells

This is where the quiz starts feeling personal in a social way. People know your habits, your lines, and your default energy.

Category 5: Final boss questions

Finish with one or two questions that only the closest people should get. That is often what decides the leaderboard.

FAQ
