CHALLENGE


Shakespeare Country wanted to showcase the attractions that tourists are able to come and visit in the area and wanted to use an online tool to promote what is available to new visitors.

The primary aim for the campaign was to raise awareness for the area and to encourage users to visit the client's website.

The campaign has been live for less than 3 months and to date, has received over 11 million plays and delivered over 2.5 million hits to the client's website.

TECHNICAL CHALLENGE


Building the Romeo game delivered many challeneges and techinical hurdles. One of the main challeneges was to create a campaign that allowed the end user to experience the attractions that are found in and around the birthplace of William Shakespeare.

When building the game, the ability to optimise images and files allowed us to expand on the creative within the game giving what we hope and believe is a fantastic campaign for both our client and the end users.

BENEFITS
