We had long discussions on whether to prioritise learnings or rewards, most competitors were focusing on rewards. In the first release, we focused on learning, which made it very dense as a feature. We saw that players were completing it because of the easiness of challenges, but they were not even realizing they were completing something. This shows how the 100% completion wasn't a good measure.
In future releases, after testing and interviewing users, we decided to move this to the 20+ level, where players are more open to play styles. And we swapped the beginning for easier newcomer challenges.
