I've tried two of those quizzes and it has started to be fun.
Good effort but I hope that browsers add a feature to avoid phishing so that the browser provides a protection edition even if the user is not expert.
Some of them must be included in the welcome message.

Host-file to deal with phising sites

Host-file modified: Either be strict or not useful. Because either ban all sites other than those in Host-file. Or ban some sites.
Remember, scam/phishing does not stop but is developing rapidly.

I do hope also that browsers improve protection for phishing, maybe by making users learn protection in some fun way.
Meanwhile we can install few extensions (Metamask, Malwarebytes...), that are also not perfect, but they help a bit.

There are lies, damned lies and statistics. MTwain

I took the Binance quiz a few months ago (see https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.51092302) and it was rather entertaining. The thing is that, when taking these quizzes, we know the context they are in, and thus are fully focused on what to look for. Unfortunately, in our day to day we may well not be as focused, and even less for those that are barely aware of how these things take place. The quizzes linked in the OP can help to mitigate this a notch, and raise awareness on what to look out for.

Phishing is used to steal users data, passwords, private keys,
login information, credit card info, and any other valuable information.
Scammers create duplicate website or email with few modifications,
and ask people to send them their information.

So in a way they need to trow you a bait (read human greed),
and if you catch the bait you become a victim of Phishing,
just like a fisherman uses a bait for fishes.

Internet waters are deep with many 'sharks', so you need to always keep your eyes opened,
and you need to educate yourself to avoid becoming a victim.
