What it is
Daily sports news quiz: play current events, challenge friends, win.
Takes is a daily sports game app that turns today's biggest sports news into a fast, playable experience. Instead of just reading headlines, you play through them - answering questions, earning sports credit, and proving you're the most locked-in fan in your circle. It's been featured in Sports Business Journal, Fortune, and Sport Business.
How it works
Each day Takes serves up a fresh set of sports stories in a quiz-style format you can blitz through in minutes.
You earn credits for correct answers, challenge friends to head-to-head matchups, and customize your profile to show off your fandom. The app is available on iOS and keeps things competitive with daily streaks and leaderboards.
