Last month we discussed how branded games and stock mobile applications could fit within your marketing mix.  Since these products are a new concept among most promotional products buyers we wanted to provide you with a way to test the product.  Click on the QR Code below to download and play our branded Dice Game on your iPhone, iPad or Android. 

When downloading the app you will need a user and password.  Use the initials (case sensitive) “tmp” in both cases.

Current game applications include 3D Dice, Hangman and Tic-Tac-Toe.  New games such as Fortune Teller are in development, and expected to be available soon.  Stock applications include Alarm Clock, and Medical Minders which remind the recipient when it is time for medications to be taken.

 In case you missed the previous article, we thought the statistics were just too good not to mention again.
