Getting started with Fanzone
Instant Win: the Bento
Add the "Bento" Instant Win Block: your fans choose a compartment to try to discover the hidden prize.
The Bento is one of the formats of your Fanzone's Instant Win Block. Presented as a compartment box, it invites the fan to choose one and find out whether it hides the winning prize.
What is it for?
The Bento is an Instant Win based on choice: the fan selects one element among several and finds out whether they aimed right. A fun, elegant format for distributing prizes while involving the player.
How is it played?
The fan taps the game button (PLAY by default), then chooses a compartment among those offered. The content is revealed: if they found the right one, they win a prize; otherwise, a screen invites them to try again. The result is instant.
