Objective

MSI wanted to reignite its Reward Program and pull in new sign-ups: points could only be earned by members, so the game doubled as a registration funnel. A streaming bonus extended the campaign's reach beyond the site itself, keeping players inside the MSI ecosystem for the month the promotion ran.

Solution

You play a robot rabbit sprinting down an endless track, and a single click or tap makes it dash between the rocks in its path. Time the dash right and the rabbit scoops up a golden egg; nail an especially sharp dash and it earns a bonus egg on top. There's no fixed end point — you can keep running as many times as you like, restarting instantly by clicking the MSI logo. Every egg you collect is logged against your MSI Reward account: finishing a run banks 25 points, and gathering 30 eggs unlocks a 100-point bonus, both redeemable on the campaign site for entries into the Grand Raffle.

Results

41,000 players took part, generating 22,000 collected contacts, with an average session length of 5 minutes.

How it plays

9 steps
  1. 1

    To earn rewards for playing, the player must be logged in as a member of the MSI Reward Program from the campaign's "Hop To It: Ready, Set, Live" page; without that login, no points are credited for play.

  2. 2

    The game loads behind an egg-themed preloader animation, then opens on a start screen branded "MSI — The Egg Hunt."

  3. 3

    The player controls a robot rabbit running along a track lined with rock obstacles, using a single click or tap to make it dash between them; landing the dash on the right timing also scoops up gold eggs, with faster, better-timed dashes yielding more eggs.

  4. 4

    Eggs collected during a run build up in an on-screen counter; reaching 30 eggs in a single run triggers a bonus of 100 MSI Reward Points.

  5. 5

    Clicking the MSI logo after a run restarts the game, and the rabbit can run as many times as the player likes, though the base completion reward of 25 points is credited only once per account.

  6. 6

    The game runs in portrait orientation on a phone as well as on desktop, with no separate app required.

  7. 7

    As a side task, players can stream their Egg Hunt run on any streaming platform and submit a screenshot showing the gameplay and their streamer ID or face; once moderated, this adds 100 points to their account.

  8. 8

    Points earned across the above are spent on the campaign landing page to enter a random Grand Raffle drawing; once spent, points are not refunded.

  9. 9

    MSI drew Grand Raffle winners at random on May 22, 2023, posting results on the event page and notifying winners by email; the 30-egg bonus of 100 points was credited only after the campaign itself closed on May 12, 2023.
