Offline First.
Offline first means the experience assumes the network is absent and treats connectivity as an upgrade, not a prerequisite. Remiam builds this way for installation work, where the venue wi-fi is shared with thousands of people and a spinner in front of a queue is the one failure a client will remember. The pattern is consistent: load the whole plan once, run the decision logic locally, persist every event to IndexedDB, and sync opportunistically when a connection appears. The Prize Wheel kiosk is the clearest example — the device holds outcome authority for the whole run and the server acts as record and backup rather than gatekeeper, which is only safe because the design deliberately constrains the activation to a single kiosk. Offline first is an architectural commitment made early; it is very hard to retrofit onto a build that assumed a request could always be made.
Prize Wheel
A portrait prize-wheel kiosk built for the premium hospitality lounge at a major golf championship in July 2026. Guests unlock the screen, swipe, and the wheel lands on a prize — but the spin is cosmetic. A weighted allocation engine decides every outcome so prize ratios, daily limits and rare-item timing exactly match the sponsor's pre-agreed plan. The kiosk runs the engine locally so it never depends on venue wi-fi, and a separate admin platform gives the operations team live inventory, an activity log, a spreadsheet importer and a full-event simulator.
Winner Stays
A winner-stays-on swipe-quiz platform. Two options face off, the audience swipes away the one they don't want, the survivor goes up against the next challenger — last one standing wins. Quizzes are authored on the fly with bespoke designs per quiz, a labelling + attribute backend captures rich data behind every choice, live leaderboards run on big screens, and the whole thing works offline-first then syncs to the cloud.
