Objective

Buffalo Wild Wings created a location-based mobile challenge game to drive foot traffic and repeat visits from younger sports fans during basketball season.

Solution

The SCVNGR platform combined arcade-style basketball challenges with physical scavenger hunts at restaurant locations, awarding points and food/merchandise rewards for completions. Leaderboards and social-sharing mechanics fostered competition, reaching 184,000 unique players and generating 118 million social impressions over three months.
