Gaming Personality

I've dropped by this site - BrainHex where they have a unique gaming personality test. It's more of a survey of whether you're a casual gamer who likes solving puzzles or maybe a hardcore gamer who loves the thrill of speed.

I don't know what exactly they are surveying for but I'm assuming that their results might help developers target their games better. What if they know that most casual gamers like social games? The developers would then develop games to suit the demand of the casual gaming crowd. Since they know what those gamers like, they can then target their ads in the right places.

Currently, the results show a huge number of the Conqueror personality type. Considering that most of the survey takers are male and hard core gamers, I bet the site needs a more diversified sample.

I'm a Conqueror-Mastermind which states I like the feeling of achievement and thinking. I guess that's true since I mostly write about strategy games here on this blog.
