&gt; Three early efforts are games called “Queens”, “Inference” and “Crossclimb.”<p>&gt; LinkedIn appears to be experimenting with involves player scores being organised by places of work, with companies getting “ranked” by those scores.<p>Great. Can&#x27;t wait to hear recruiters saying &quot;we are highly ranked in <i>crossclimb</i> &quot; as one of the reasons to join their company.(I really wish we can get back to this stage given how the job market is currently).<p>On the other side, there will be more useless posts about high scores from &quot;leaders&quot; and their followers congratulating them on those achievements.
