The Story Behind CityQuiz.fun

This adventure led to a new friendship, was an incredibly fun challenge, and resulted in the creation of CityQuiz.fun - a Game created by two people that did not know each other before, met up in Morocco and created this Game as a challenge.

The game was built in two hackathon-like sessions where we combined our skills in design, development, and creativity to produce something fun and unique in just 10 hours.

It all started when I made this post on X before embarking on a 32 day long adventure in Morocco:

Benny quickly reached out to me and booked a flight to morocco shortly after that! Crazy right?

The challenge was on!

Benny arrived on the 3th November and we met a day after that and went for a morning coffee. It made *click*, we both were directly on the same page regarding the project scope and our goals.

Having travelled Morocco for quite a bit up to the point I had an Idea for guessing game where you see a picture of a street/ city and had to guess which city it was - we were both stoked to get started and made a quick mock up on paper and started to get to work!

Here was our incredible view:

The view was fantastic but we managed to pick the hottest days ever to work on the game. It was a sweaty race against the clock since our flight were both going the next day...

But we managed to fight scope creep and many distractions and 10 hours later the MVP of CityQuiz.fun was ready.

Time to celebrate:

That's it so far! Thank you for being part of this adventure!
