FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
BALTIMORE – January 29, 2013 --
Social/mobile game developer PlayScreen, LLC is launching
”Crickler Bowl”, a contest in their popular
crossword-like iOS game, Crickler 2:Daily Word Puzzles. Players can
win prizes by solving Super Bowl related puzzles and using the
game’s “baked in” brag system to
‘tweet’ their support for their favorite team.
Players can solve puzzles based on the Baltimore Ravens, San
Francisco 49’ers or the Super Bowl itself. Five players will
be randomly picked to win $20 Amazon Gift Cards, when they solve
any of the three Super Bowl Puzzles and use the Crickler Twitter
brag system. The contest runs from Tuesday January 29th, through
Sunday February 3rd.
PlayScreen will also be running a tally of the two teams
popularity, a count of how many times players have played each
team’s puzzle. Crickler and football fans can follow the
daily action at PlayScreen’s Facebook page at
https://www.facebook.com/playscreen .
In Crickler 2, clues and words sit side by side—and the
challenge is “just right,” thanks to adaptive
difficulty based on real-time player performance. The game not only
keeps players entertained with fresh daily puzzles, but it allows
them to keep up with current events through puzzles focusing on the
news of the day. Crickler 2 puzzles teach effortlessly thanks to
the straightforward gameplay and “knowledge-based”
format of each puzzle. With over 1 million puzzles played, Crickler
is one of the most popular crossword style games on the iPhone.
“Crickler is a great way of learning about any subject,
while having fun” says William Volk, Chief Creative Officer,
PlayScreen. “The Crickler Bowl Contest not only gives players
a chance to win prizes, it also allows football fans to vote for
their Super Bowl pick.”
Crickler 2:Daily Word Puzzles can be downloaded for free from
the iTunes App Store.
