Topshop
Topshop released a game called SCVNGR (scavenger). You had
to download the game in the form of an app. Then there were different
challenges to play for different prizes such a £50 to spend in store etc. there
were also tasks inside the store to encourage footfall.
Lookbook
Lookbook is a site where people can upload pictures of their
outfits. Lookbook hasn’t actually released a game for PR or promotion it’s used
gaming techniques as part of the uniqueness of the website. The more that you
like an outfit you are encouraged to ‘hype’ the look. The more hypes a look
gets then the higher it gets featured on the homepage. The more hypes it receives
then the average of ‘karma’ becomes higher which gives the user more exposure.
So basically the reward of having a good outfit is social status.
Gamification is very important as it's a great PR tool simply because it's a really fun way of getting people involved
in a brand.
