Dueldo App The duel goes on!

A game night is only the beginning. With the planned Dueldo app, the game experience shouldn't end at the game cabinet. People who got to know each other while playing should be able to keep challenging each other afterwards: on the go, from home, until the next duel in person.

App draft: knowledge quiz, question 3 of 8 about the plastic bottle in the sea, answer C is correct, 380 points
The app in action

A challenge in 45 seconds

Create a round, invite friends, play five games, see the results: this is how an online challenge in the Dueldo app is meant to work.

The concept

From the game cabinet to your smartphone and back again

The app isn't a separate product but an extension of Dueldo. Real encounters at the game cabinet stay at the centre. The app is meant to bridge the time in between.

  1. On siteMeet and play

    You play at the Dueldo game cabinet, laugh together and battle it out in exciting duels.

  2. In the appKeep challenging

    Afterwards it continues digitally: new challenges, comparing results, beating your personal bests.

  3. Back on siteMeet again in person

    At the next game night you face each other again and find out who's really ahead.

The fun shouldn't simply be over when the evening ends.

Planned

The games: from the game cabinet straight to your smartphone

Many digital challenges you know from the real Dueldo are set to be playable in the app too. To do this, we use the same game base and bring suitable games to the smartphone. The result is a game experience that works both on site and digitally.

Planned features

What the app should be able to do

An overview of the features we're working on right now. What will end up in the first version hasn't been decided yet.

Digital challenges

Familiar games from the game cabinet, adapted for the smartphone. Everyone plays the same tasks.

Friend duels

1 vs 1, everyone against everyone or 2 vs 2 in teams, even when you're not in the same place.

Player profile

A personal profile for all games and experiences, in the app and at the game cabinet.

Statistics and achievements

Personal strengths, best results and badges. See where you're improving.

Leaderboards

Who's leading among your friends? Weekly leaderboards and personal bests.

Game history

All your past duels and shared game experiences in one place.

Planned

One profile. All games. All experiences.

Every player is set to get a personal Dueldo profile. It stores:

  • Player name and personal profile
  • Challenges played and results
  • Statistics and achievements
  • Game history and past duels
  • Friends and shared game experiences
  • Leaderboards and personal bests
App draft: home screen with profile, level 12, 48 wins, New challenge button and ongoing rounds

Draft: home screen with your profile

Connection to the game cabinet

Register once, play everywhere

If you already have a profile in the app, you'll be able to sign in at the Dueldo game cabinet simply with a QR code. Your profile is carried over, and results and statistics are then synced automatically.

1. At the game cabinet

When signing in, the screen shows a QR code for each seat.

2. Scan with the app

A quick scan with your smartphone is all it takes. No typing, no password at the game cabinet.

3. Everything in sync

After the game night, you'll find your results and statistics in the app.

One profilefor the game cabinet on site and the app on the go. That creates a seamless link between real and digital duels.
Planned

Challenge your friends, anytime, anywhere

Even when you're not in the same place, you should be able to keep competing. Challenge friends to new challenges, compare your reaction times, beat your personal bests and find out who'll be ahead at the next duel in person.

That makes Dueldo more than a one-off game night: a shared, long-term game experience.

App draft: Lisa, Max and Jana have accepted the challenge
App draft: results per game and team total of 3 to 1

Drafts: friends accept, then the results

Planned

Challenge online. Meet offline.

The app shouldn't just connect people digitally, but bring them together again and again. A spontaneous duel at the game cabinet can turn into a friendship, and a digital challenge into the next game night together.
