On the Record is a daily quiz game that challenges players on their news knowledge. After serving as a consultant on the initial beta release, I conducted a redesign to align On the Record's look and growth strategy with other Washington Post games — introducing more varied question types, a consistent scoring mechanic, and uniform registration and UI behavior.
