The Arcade turns studying into a game. In Mountain Max you steer a running dog down a mountain and answer quiz questions by running through the gate with the correct answer, while jumping over logs and stones.

​
When to play

Every gate is a recall attempt, so a run is retrieval practice disguised as a break. Play it when your motivation for another flashcard session is gone, or as a warm-up before a proper study session.

​
Starting a game

  • On the web: click the Arcade card in the sidebar.
  • In the app: open the + create menu and choose Mountain Max.
Then pick where the questions come from:
  • Any topic: type a topic and questions are generated in seconds.
  • Your deck: pick one of your decks and questions are generated from its content. This uses one AI generation credit, but only once: the questions are saved and reused every time you replay.

​
How to play

You run automatically in one of three lanes. The current question sits at the top of the screen, and each gate shows three answers, one per lane.
  • Steer into the lane with the correct answer: arrow keys or A/D on the web, swipe left or right in the app.
  • Jump over logs and stones: Space on the web, swipe up in the app.
  • Running through the correct gate scores points. A wrong gate or a crashed obstacle costs one of your three lives.
Questions repeat in random order until your lives run out; then hit Try again and beat your score.
The Arcade is rolling out gradually, so it may not be visible on your account yet.
