A case study.
Overview
Building fun, interactive, educational and engaging experiences is what we do best at Tesuji, so, when NCM submitted their Noovie Trivia App for our consideration, we knew it would be a great fit.
We were tasked to design and develop an app that hosted multiple trivia games using NCM’s licensing of popular movies. In addition to the main app, we created a mini game called “Motion Picks” that allowed NCM users to rank their movie favorites against other users.

Making it stand out.
Project Goal.
Tesuji took up the challenge of creating a simple, playful, and functional solution to ensure NCM movie goers get the best from their pre-show in-theater gaming experience and test out their trivia skills while they eat some popcorn! NCM’s Noovie pre-show reaches more people every weekend than any show making it one of the top 10 prime time shows in the country every week. No wonder they turned to us.
Scope of Work.
UI/UX Design
Flexible and Scalable Multi Mini Game backend and front end work in Unity, Playfab, Firebase, and other technologies.
iOS/Android App development and deployment
Create a new in-app mini-game called "Motion Picks”
Behind the Scenes.
As you can see Noovie Trivia looks great and works like a charm. All of the pretty user experience is supported by a solid back-end design and maintenance. Designing these systems is another area where we shine (okay, a little brag here).
With each technical decision there is some push and pull to get the best experience possible. Having flexibility in the end result to adapt to changes by client and player is what we focused on most. This allowed us to take in stride design changes and development changes through out the project.
In the world of app making it is easy to get lost in the backend and create a mess. We have created a well-designed architecture both for the app, web-app, web admin tool set and backend - that will allow Noovie Trivia App to scale with ease.
User and Developer Interface.
We designed the app with people in mind. How did we make it user friendly? NCM wanted something effusive and intriguing to the player. Something that will make them want to continue testing their trivia mind and collect avatars. This coupled with the challenge of integrating multiple mini games in a cohesive manner. Designing shareable components for the other game teams on the project to iterate on and adjust was key. They were impressed with our designs and our technical design.
Designing an inviting environment.

I’m thinking gif or videos for each of the case study points so it feels alive. i like what Brandon did on HP
