This is a fun game by Pepsi that Tom found today. He’s already won and I’m still trying.

Dude, that has to be the most addictive thing ever. I can only get to the 3rd to the last wall before I crash.

Mission accomplished. I was hoping to get the chick at the end, but there was no chick, just some sweaty dude drinking a pepsi. I wonder what the Japanese graphics were all about.

Yes, I know it’s a Japanese website. My point was that at the end (i.e. when you win) you should be taken to the main pepsi.co.jp site. Good viral marketing gets users to play a game. Great viral marketing delivers them to the main site afterward.

Well, in this case they did it a bit differently. The japanese graphics you’re wondering about link you to a page where you can download and incorporate into your blog a banner ad congratulating you for winning the game and pointing your visitors to the site. Do a Google for “pepsi nex banner”, there are already 13,800 results — for a banner ad.

Not your typical viral online marketing campaign, but a viral campaign nonetheless. The site has links to information on the drink, but I would imagine none of that information is quite as fun or exciting as playing the game. That simple game does all it needs to do, even without a site, you (and everyone who downloaded and incorporated the banner ad) are now connected to the brand.

Good point, Mark. I hadn’t bothered with the link at the end. I was too juiced about winning the game.
