Rechaptca

Inspiration

Our inspiration for "Rechaptca" came from a frustrating experience: failing a captcha while trying to register for a Devpost account. Rather than dwelling on the annoyance, we saw an opportunity to turn our misfortune into a captivating and enjoyable game, allowing everyone to share in the amusement of solving captchas!

What it does

"Rechaptca" challenges players with a series of captivating, tricky, and downright difficult captchas. With varying time limits, reactions, and general knowledge tests, the game promises an entertaining experience for all!

How we built it

We used React.JS and Mantine for the component library, alongside with various APIs such as Youtube for more interesting challenges!

Challenges we ran into

The time frame was extremely tight, and we were not able to implement many of the more interesting challenges we had in mind. However, we decided to make sure the core of the game is still fun and interesting for all players!
