"One of our biggest challenges was determining whether low retention stemmed from onboarding issues or from the core gameplay experience itself. Lysto’s structured playtesting solution helped us quickly uncover and eliminate key FTUE and comprehension barriers through multiple rounds of testing. This allowed us to isolate gameplay fun as the primary driver of retention and focus our product efforts accordingly. "
