Game Modes
Alone
Single-player adaptive quiz mode. Each player receives one open question attempt at a time. Answers immediately update the player profile, rankings and question statistics.
ADuel
Asynchronous two-player duel mode. One player answers a question set first, while a second player later receives the same questions and competes against the recorded answers.
Split
Multi-session multiplayer mode. The server creates and manages grouped quiz attempts for multiple active sessions simultaneously.
Security
Gameplay requests for anonymous users use temporary server-side
session tokens instead of authenticated WordPress sessions.
Administrative actions require standard WordPress capabilities
and nonce validation.
Gameplay communication uses WordPress REST API endpoints.
Logged-in users are protected with WordPress nonces.
Guest gameplay uses plugin-generated session identifiers validated server-side.
