Originally when I started the study the estimated completion time was 15 mins, but after I finished I saw that they changed it to 20 mins..which was feel more accurate, it took me quite a bit longer than listed. The study also asks for addresses of places you've been if anyone is weary of sharing such. Besides that it was simple, though it felt a bit repetitive, but I understand there being nuances.

They at least sent me a message saying why it was delayed by like 7 minutes, but then it was over the allotted time anyway. It's because it's "multiplayer," might've just be AI, who knows. Whatever it was vibe coded and seemed broken constantly. There was no rhyme or reason for the pictures and felt more like a coin flip for a million trials and there was no code at the end. It took me almost an hour on a 45 minute broken study that I'm not even sure if there is a payout, bonus or if it's just a scam.

No idea if this is one of those studies that are simply broken, an outright scam attempt, or just dumb. But could not figure this out and not sure if study design was this way or if it was actually broken content. Sent message to researcher and returned due to lack of alternatives. Like there wasn't even a progress bar. Just a total waste of time.
