Should daily guessing games stay strictly focused, or expand into pop culture?

by•

Hey Product Hunt community 👋

I’ve been building Worthle (), a daily deductive guessing game exploring official public financial disclosures of politicians across the US, UK, and Canada (Wordle-meets-civic transparency).

During our early tests, we noticed strong organic engagement because people love discussing and discovering the lesser-known lawmakers shaping our laws.

Now, as we prepare for our official launch today, we're facing an interesting product dilemma:

1. Keep it strictly focused on civics & public disclosures (high substance, unique educational angle, authoritative data).

2. Or expand into mainstream celebrity / tech billionaire editions to capture broader casual traffic.

For founders who have built games or consumer web apps:

Did broadening your category help you scale faster, or did it dilute what made your core product special in the first place?

Would love to hear your thoughts and experiences!
