The challenge
Sibaqul Horof required more than a simple trivia-question database. The platform needed to support real competitive gameplay, content moderation, player progression, social interactions, game currencies and live operational control from a single backend.
The key challenge was creating an administration and API layer that could support a separate mobile game client while keeping question quality, player data and game-economy configuration manageable for non-technical operators.
- Manage a large Arabic multiple-choice question bank with moderation and approval workflows.
- Serve questions dynamically by Arabic starting letter and difficulty level.
- Support both 1-vs-1 and four-player team game modes.
- Track players, wins, currencies, levels, friendships and game activity.
- Provide leaderboards and historical game/player analytics.
- Support multiple virtual currencies and consumable help items.
- Enable Firebase push notifications for invites, rewards and player communication.
- Support OTP-based mobile verification and game-account security flows.
- Give administrators operational control over countries, users, players, questions and global game settings.
What we built
Sibaqul Horof was implemented as a Laravel-based game backend with a dedicated Vue.js administration panel and a separate API layer for the mobile game client. The platform centralizes game content, player management, multiplayer logic, virtual currencies, notifications and operational analytics.
