Albert questions are different ways of your staff answering multiple choice questions about your business to test and improve their knowledge.
What are the different game types?
Whack-a-Mole - tap the moles holding up the correct answer, but you need to be quick before they disappear!
Shootout - aim the ball at the correct answer and score a goal! ⚽🎉
Catapult - pull the arm of the catapult back to the correct answer:
Standard (Alberts Lab) - This question type does not involve a game. The question is presented on the screen and you have to tap the correct answer
The Claw - press A, B, or C and see the grabber move, it’ll try and pick up the prize, grabbing it if you got it right. 🕹
Penny Pusher - at the top of the screen there are three slots with the answers, and you pick which slot A, B, or C to put the coin in. If you get the answer right watch the coins fall down and gain your XP! 🪙
