The Challenge
The user is then ‘space warped’ into the microbiological world and given sporty stats on the germ of the day. Like a Top Trump, you can see how fast the germ spreads, how ill it can make a human; generating gamification and interest in facts, which are often perceived as ‘boring’ hygiene.
The user is challenged to ‘run the gauntlet’ and survive whilst spreading as much infection as possible - before Zoflora gets close and ends the fun, through effective disinfecting germ kill!
Inspired by retro arcade gaming – the UI incorporated a tried and tested time-based challenge, with significant repeat users and new consumers interacting with the brand every day.
Our in-house illustrators specialise in character design and developed 2D character illustrations to represent the ‘germs of the day’. Injecting personality to each character made them affable and playful, friendly enough to play, yet sinister enough to communicate the dangers around the home.
