Brief Explanation

Google PlayTown is the real world Google Play Store. It is a month long OOH experience that brought mobile games to the streets where people could really experience the fun and interaction of games themselves. This hub housed 1m mobile apps and games and over 70 titles from various developers and hosted daily events to engage people with real world mobile face offs and live YouTube streams with local celebrities. The gamified street activations were designed to have people experience mobile games in their everyday lives in surprising contexts. The largest individual activation was a tie up across 5000 7/11 stores where people got rewarded when they engaged through a mobile game. This Real World Google Play Store had 60 000 visitors over the month and 1 000 000 people watched the mobile gaming face-offs live on YouTube.
