DESIGN NAME: Tarock
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Self Development App
INSPIRATION: The inspiration for Tarock came from recognizing that personality is often overlooked in social interactions, leading to misunderstandings. By understanding and leveraging the personalities of friends, we can foster better relationships. Existing personality tools are outdated and unreliable. We saw an opportunity to innovate with a modern design and clear language, creating a tool that improves awareness of personality dynamics and compatibility, enhancing social interactions and well-being.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Tarock is a premier platform for uncovering and understanding personality through fun, expert-designed card games. Grounded in scientific assessments, it guides users on a self-discovery journey, revealing character intricacies and providing personalized insights. Dive into interactive experiences, shareable cards, and a vibrant community to foster connections and celebrate diversity. Tarock promotes mindfulness, growth, and improved relationships, helping everyone and the world connect better.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Once users sign up, they embark on a self-discovery journey with a personality test. They then explore insightful and fun quizzes by swiping through tailored cards. Users can create content and engage in polls to engage and make friends with like-minded individuals. Tarock suggests users with similar traits for personality comparisons through matched cards. This seamless experience fosters mindfulness, growth, and meaningful connections, fostering a more understanding and connected world.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in March 2024 and finished in May 2024 in California.
