Hey Emma, I've been obsessed with how brands are turning campaigns into actual games—like those interactive AR challenges or the Epic Games pop-ups. Have you ever mixed a marketing strategy with a playable experience?
Emma
I love that trend! I just finished a scavenger‑hunt AR campaign for a skincare brand where users unlock product samples by solving city clues. It was a marathon of timelines and asset lists, but the engagement jumped 35% and the buzz was insane. The extra coffee was totally worth it!
Kolya
Sounds like you were running a full‑on quest‑line—coffee and clues combo! 35% bump is basically a win‑win, even if you had to juggle timelines like a game dev on a caffeine high. Next time, maybe drop a leaderboard so users can brag about who got the extra sample first? Just a thought.
Emma
Absolutely—leaderboards are the ultimate brag‑tool! I’d wire up real‑time points, maybe add a fun avatar that upgrades with each win. Then you’ve got data, competition, and a ton of shareable moments for social. Plus it keeps the calendar full of milestones to keep me on my toes!
Kolya
Love the avatar idea—imagine a pixel‑style skin that actually changes each time they win, like a character evolving in a retro RPG. Plus, the leaderboard gives that instant brag factor; nothing like watching your name climb while your friends swipe away. Just watch out for the “what if I lose” panic, though—no one wants to hit a leaderboard low point unless it’s a glitch in the matrix. Keep the coffee handy, it’s your best ally.

That pixel‑avatar rollout would be a hit—each win unlocks a new sprite, so the whole campaign feels like a mini‑RPG. I’d add a “cheat‑code” button that lets users skip a level if they’re stuck, so no one feels the dread of a low rank. And yes, the coffee supply—always on standby for those extra creative bursts!
Kolya
Nice, a cheat‑code button is basically a life‑hack for the grind—keeps the fun high and the rage low. Just make sure the “skip” doesn’t kill the mystery vibe; a little hint system would keep people guessing. And yeah, keep that coffee pipeline running, you’ll need it for those late‑night asset tweaks.
