Objective

Supercell created a promotional campaign for the Brawl Stars character 8-BIT to deepen player engagement with the character through an interactive branded experience. The campaign leveraged arcade gaming nostalgia and the character's backstory to create a unique promotional moment aligned with the character's release or feature in the game.

Solution

Players interacted with the 8-BIT character by tapping it eight times to unlock a series of nested minigames. Each minigame served as a portal to the next level, progressively revealing the character's secret origin story through references to arcade gaming history. The experience created layers of discovery, with minigames hidden within minigames, engaging players through both gameplay and narrative progression.
