TBWA\Zurich launches a Christmas game for McDonald's
After the in-app game "Burger Summer Run" with over two million gameplays, the "X-mas Magic Run" now follows for McDonald's at Christmas. The game is accompanied by a campaign from TBWA\Zurich.
The in-app game "X-mas Magic Run" offers users new additional functions in December, such as an overview map, a secret level, more seasons and even more daily, weekly and main prizes. In this way, the game is expected to attract a large number of the approximately one million app users and new guests to the restaurants. The app also offers various incentives from cooperation partners such as Snipes, Coca-Cola, One+ and Zattoo.
Cross campaigning on social media and in-game specials will also playfully incorporate the Snipes X McDonald's collection and Big Mac Bacon into the winter campaign.
As already last summer Wintergame also comes with 8-bit graphics, paying homage to legendary arcade games like Super Mario Bros. and Wonder Boy. The game was realized together with TBWA\X from Amsterdam.
The spot for the game was again produced together with Shining Film and director Simon Wannaz. The campaign is accompanied by print, online and social media measures as well as Christmas GIF animations that can be used on social media and can be seen as window stickers in the restaurants.
