Bug Factory

The factory where bugs reveal your real talents.

Much more than a simple online game: a playful and revealing experience, designed to test and reveal your logic, your analytical mind, your stress management and your ability to solve complex challenges.

The interface

A factory
to fix.

Dive into a stimulating environment that combines testing and entertainment. Bugs to diagnose, commands to execute, levels to clear: each challenge reveals a concrete skill.

How it works

A game, not a test

Candidates dive into a gamified environment where each challenge reveals a concrete skill. No more theoretical questions that predict nothing.

Captivating universe

Dive into a stimulating environment that combines testing and entertainment. 3D and AR immersion places the candidate in real situations, not in front of a questionnaire.

Varied challenges

Challenges perfect for assessing logic skills, analytical thinking and behaviour under complex, stressful situations.

Objective assessment

Every action is tracked: resolution time, approach, quality of the diagnosis produced. The recruiter gets a quantified skill profile, not an impression.

Tool for visionary recruiters

Ideal for identifying exceptional talent with a sharp analytical mind and rock-solid logic. We hire on what you can do, not what you say.

The design process

From visual mood
to finished product.

Bug Factory was born from a four-phase design and development process, from visual mood research to game mechanics integration.

01

Visual mood research

Defining the game's visual atmosphere: colour choices, typography, icons, backgrounds and animations to create an immersive and engaging experience.

02

Character design

Designing characters that accompany and help users throughout the game. Appearance, expressions and style reflect the game's spirit.

03

Challenge design

Designing the game mechanics: how puzzles work, difficulty levels, challenge sequencing, rules, possible interactions and hint systems.

04

Development & components

Integrating game mechanics and functional elements. Implementing challenges, interactions and features, with designers providing all components and illustrations.
