About

Mindflex is an iOS game application built with Swift. It is a simple and fun reflex quiz game that challenges your mind. The user is presented with random arithmetic questions and, they must answer the question correctly in under 3 seconds.

Back-End

This game is supported by a backend server (mindflex-server) hosted on a cloud machine that provides endpoints and routes for question data. The server is built with Python and Flask. The database is a noSQL MongoDB database. When the application starts, an API request is made during the loading page which responds with question data that supports gameplay. Once the request has been fulfilled, the application continues to the Welcome screen.

This is the gameplay screen, the main feature of the application.

A score is shown at the top that is highlighted with a green background, as the user answers questions correctly. A progress bar is displayed and completes at 3 seconds. A motivating message is shown for specific point values. I wonder what it says for 100? 🤔 The arithmetic question is shown in bold text. The user must answer True or False.

If the user answers a question incorrectly or, time runs out, the game ends. The user may start a new game or, return to the Home screen.
