GPS mobile game
"The Shroud" - a new mobile game with GPS features that will be shown at E3:
GPS: The Next Big Thing for Mobile?BIZ: From a business/marketing standpoint, GPS games could potentially lead to some unique promotional activities. For example, perhaps visiting certain real-world locations could earn points for purchases with that marketing partner or could unlock in-game extras sort of like in-game ads meets real-world. Have you thought about anything like this?
RS: We certainly have thought of such scenarios. In fact The Shroud already has static GPS hotspots centered around real world monuments and landmarks throughout each market we plan to operate in. For example anyone playing The Shroud who goes to Fisherman's wharf in San Francisco will be sent off on a GPS fishing challenge. (optional of course). Should a company want to sponsor The Shroud nationally or locally and, for example, have the players use all Burger Kings as GPS challenge hotspots then we most certainly could accommodate that request if we felt it was the right fit.
