The challenge
Engage people all over the country with the Far East through a game that runs on any device, counts points fairly and launches on a fixed date and hour.
What Awake! delivered
The game is built in Unity for the browser: the player travels across a map of the regions and plays mini-games at each stop — fishing, reindeer racing, tubing, connecting a power station, word search and more, with time-based scoring. In 2023 the map grew to 9 regions with 5 mini-games each. Around the game we built the website: registration, personal profile, quiz, secret codes, ratings and voting with verified phone and e-mail. It runs on old tablets and phones, and we protected the scoring against manipulation through the API.
Outcome
The quest launched at midnight Moscow time in November 2020 and was updated and relaunched every year up to 2024.
