Seamless paths
Paths to earning in-game rewards and Bitcoin should be clear and uninterrupted. Any friction in the path diminishes the overall experience.
- Clear instructions at the beginning.
- Easy to understand Solitaire gameplay.
- Potentially disruptive ad placements that interrupt the flow.
- The actual Bitcoin earning mechanism needs to be transparent.
Flow features
Features like undo and hints can enhance flow by allowing players to recover from mistakes without completely halting their progress.
Undo Feature
An undo button is essential for correcting misclicks and maintaining momentum.
Rhythm points
Rhythm points in this context relate to moments of high reward or significant progress. Completing a Solitaire game or reaching a milestone should be celebrated with engaging visuals and sound.
| Event | Rhythmic Element |
|---|---|
| Completing a Game | Visual confetti, celebratory sound effect. |
| Earning Rewards | Animated Bitcoin icons, satisfying "cha-ching" sound. |
Smooth transitions
Transitioning between games, menus, and reward screens should be seamless and quick. Long loading times or jarring transitions can disrupt the player's focus.
Transition Quality
Fast loading times are critical. Any delay exceeding a few seconds severely impacts the user experience.
Final verdict
The app's flow hinges on responsive card mechanics, transparent reward systems, and seamless transitions. The balance between gameplay and Bitcoin rewards will determine its success. Frequent and well-timed rewards can amplify user retention.
