Real Life Angry Birds

You’ve probably already seen this. It’s spreading like wildfire. The T-Mobile Real Life Angry Birds campaign ‘soared’ throughout the internet and landed media coverage on hundreds of blogs including this one. People love angry birds. In fact, the game has over 12 million sold and 30 million free downloads.

T-Mobile’s Live Angry Birds stunt was a wonderful guerrilla marketing campaign that captured the interest of hundreds of people walking by. Because it is so unusual yet so familiar, people were drawn to the set like flys on honey. The campaign ran in Barcelona back in May. Users could control the live game via the T-Mobile smart phone on the kiosk.  The whole campaign was a huge success. It’s curious. It’s new. It’s Angry Birds!

Below you can see another video that capture the making of the Angry Birds Live set:

The real question remains…did this campaign make you want to play?
