Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

The submission represents 'Fomo Games', a verified and legitimate mobile game developer based in Istanbul (est. 2019) with a hit title 'Event Twins' (>1M downloads). While the submission text is exceptionally poor (e.g., listing 'Internet' as technology, claiming 'everyone' as audience), external verification confirms a team of ~50-100 and significant revenue/valuation (Series A funded, ~$50M valuation in 2022). The score reflects the strong real-world traction of the business (comparable to the calibration reference) heavily penalized by the lack of direct evidence and low effort in the submission data.
