Citroën UK: DS4SEEKERS - A game of hide and seek

A game of hide and seek in the real and virtual world by Citroen UK for the promotion of the new DS4. The campaign "DS4SEEKERS". Players use their mobile phones to hide or seek virtual DS4s on Google Maps and Google Streetview and score points in order to win a real DS4. With each point you get one entry into the draw so the more points you get, the more chances you have of winning.

It's cool that you can play out on the streets, if you have the time of course and online if you don't. The game will run for two 10 day periods, with the second planned for September 2011.

A head turning interactive experience by Hugo Boss for the promotion of the new fragrance "HUGO Just Different". They shot a video with three variations which you can watch simply by moving your head left or right. Your webcam picks up the movement and the site's head-tracking technology reads it and changes the video.

You can choose between movie, story and theatrical mode. Each version contains different elements. It is definitely worth checking out. If you don't have a webcam you can use left and right keys on your keyboard.
