Goal Setting Factors
What is Quest?
The means of activity within the Pocket Gym platform is defined as "quest" and is used as a goal setting tool.
Inside our platform, "quest" is defined as follows:
“A kind of mission that a users receive in a game, etc.”. If you complete a quest, you will receive a price or reward for it.
The platform consists of a logic that gives users many kinds of quests related to activities and rewards them when they are completed.
Based on the quest design algorithm (described in the next chapter), there are many quests available to meet individual fitness goals, and you may participate in quests that you need.
Quest Design
Our team was able to create a quest algorithm that each user could prefer by applying four variables with solution-based data to design users' goals and the appropriate level of difficulty. The variables are as follows:
1.User's exercise experience
2.Personality
3.Elements of Motivation
4.Gender
Based on this, eight prototype characters have been designed. One of the characters, a woman with little experience in sports, emotional, and social skills is "Amelie Type". Women in this type usually prefer quests such as "Walking with friends" and "Eating Salad."
Quest characters are used as an important base in the design of quests.
Quest Structure
The quest structure based on the quest design is as follows.
How to Participate
Individual Mode
This mode allows individual users to select and participate in quests that meet their fitness goals. There are free and membership models for participating in the "Individual" mode. First of all, free quests have a limited number of quests that can be participated at once, and the reward is lower than the membership purchase reward. Therefore, you can test the difficulty of your goal and the number of simultaneous quests you can participate in, and participate in the membership quest for higher rewards. Membership purchases can be made by both in-app payment and token payment, and you can also participate by collecting Kcal Points by watching advertisements provided in the app.
Together Mode
Together mode aims to achieve user fitness goals more effectively through competition and homogeneity. This mode allows multiple people to participate in the same pot. The participation fee in this mode is received only by Kcal points, and the reward is shared among those who complete the quest successfully. This is why in together mode, a relatively higher reward rate is applied. Users can have a more dynamic experience by participating the together mode using the Kcal points that had been collected before in individual mode.
Samsung Health Mode
Participants from all over the world who use Samsung Health Service may participate in this mode using the functions of Samsung Health. With familiar Samsung Health features, you can earn rewards on the Pocket Gym platform when you achieve your goals. The Samsung Health data retrieving may be applied to other modes as well.
Alliance Mode
Affiliate quests are designed based on affiliate products or services to help users achieve their fitness goals more effectively. Therefore, the scope of affiliates is limited to companies related to health & fitness.
In addition, products and services of affiliates can be purchased with Kcal Point, which is compensated by Pocket Gym's point mall. These quests create an ecosystem where platforms, affiliates, and users all can be win-win.
