New Game Concept: JuryNow – Get a Verdict from 12 Real People in 3 Minutes (www.jurynow.app)

**JuryNow **is a new browser-based game where you ask a yes/no (or Option 1/2) question and get a verdict from 12 strangers around the world in 3 minutes. While you wait, you do 3 minutes of JuryDuty answering other people’s questions. There are comments or discussions, just clean, human decisions.

You can ask a moral dilemma, a big life decision, a workplace problem, or a get a global objective opinion on a family argument, take a mini political poll in real time, or just ask a trivial question. It's also great for fashion choices because you can upload 2 images.

It's fast, social but anonymous, and a little addictive.

⚠️ Since it just launched, if there aren’t 13 players online, the verdict is temporarily simulated which is needed to demonstarate teh how the 3-minute system works. It’s MVP stage, so please help spread the word if you like the concept.

Try it: https://www.jurynow.app/

No ads, no tracking, just pure opinion gameplay. Would love to hear what you think.

Genuine question. Why is this a game? Don't the players just answer questions?

That's a point that my daughter has also asked because she says there are no winners therefore it can't be a game! It's a game mainly because it's fun when you receive your verdict knowing that 12 random people from anywhere in the world have just answered your question - whether it's what shirt looks best or whether to move house. It's also a game because there is a subtle team at play which you will never know...while playing JuryDuty you are answering with 11 other anonymous team members. It's a more of a game when you are actually asking a question (not just trying the JuryDuty trial round - that's more to get an idea of the game). Also, this is just the MVP, but the real model will be more "gamification" with User Stats, and rewards for playing streaks or contributing to different verdicts etc....Have I changed your mind a teensy bit? I can't tell you HOW incredibly helpful it is to get feedback! and I'm genuinely grateful for you playing & taking time to comment back!! Thank you Konrad!

I see. So it's like "Ask a friend" of anything. It's a useful application though, if the responses come quick, with more users joining of course. Say, I got two outfits to wear and I want opinions. If users disclose their nationality, occupation, age group and gender, I'd want to know the responses come from say, all male, then I know people of my gender that have such and such jobs wear similarly so I'll be more confident in choosing the outfit. I still don't think it's a game. You can make it fun to help out others by including daily quest, points system etc. Otherwise, I don't know why I would want to spend my free time on others.
