This game introduced me to the world ARG's and I love it! Way to go game developers, this was awesome!!!! I only wish I had used the same name here that I did as my code name in the game, if you see a winner listed as "Red Ninja" that is me, I thought I was being funny!

2 Bonus Winners (for the Videos)
Weekly Prize Drawings (challenges)

So I don't know how many people are out there doing this - but only 56 people on the Keepers, so chances are pretty good to get something.


I wondered about this the other day when someone mentioned a low number on some ingame site. I wonder if they think they got their money's worth on this. I rather hope so b/c I think this is a great way to introduce a brand or product. But I am sure there aren't all that many folks doing this yet.


I wonder too, but i think this type of advertising is relatively new, and if they want to be on the cutting edge of what's new and in, then it is still a good campaign.

Don't forget, You Tube was only bought out by Google exactly one year ago today - October 9th, 2006! So the online popularity of videos is just beginning.

Yes, she did a very good job. Thanks! I think the ad campaign went much further than just us too - I told everyone I knew that I was playing a game for Sarah Jessica Parker Covet Perfume, so the word got out to lots of non-playing people as well.

I told everyone I know as well. They have always thought me a bit geeky, so this fit! When I told them about the prizes they started playing. I know two friends at least that went out and bought the perfume because they liked lovely and didn't know about 'Covet' yet!

best challenge...

Ok, I'm already mourning the loss of this GREAT contest.
Let's take a moment, and share our favorite challenges....
what do you guy's think???
My favorite's were Challenge 3 and Challenge 5.
I think they were the trickiest for me as well.
#3 with Tony's pictures...whoa! That was fun!
And the Mime man!!!! I was almost certain that GLP meant Godlike Productions....with the whole "look higher" bit! I was way off in the beginning!
Those were the days!

The solution

I just want to thank everybody. This last challenge was cool. I was on the right track, but missed the 60 and 23 parts. I found the others when I went to Kovacs myspace page and M. Szaglas'. Did anybody else do it that way? Lots of these challenges were way too difficult for me. I took a few hints from you guys and tried to solve them on my own. There were other times, though, that I was so frustrated that I had to seek the answer and not just a hint.

Could someone just stick the answer under a spoiler tag? Everything I see is clues. I've multiplied the numbers and input answers until my fingers are purple and I still don't have it.

Thanks! Good game everyone!
