Barclays iPhone application



Dare and Flashlabs games have created an iPhone application based on the hugely successful waterslide advert by Barclaycard with three million downloads the game has now become number one free iPhone application in 57 countries. The 'waterslide extreme' game enables users to navigate a person down a giant waterslide by tilting their iPhone. Users can choose from male or female characters, which navigate increasingly difficult slides whilst collecting points and avoiding dangerous obstacles. When I first came across the game my initial thought where that it would be a bit budget as its free to download, but its really well designed and a great extension to carry on the hype of the waterslide advert and finally a great new medium to advertise by well done Barclays for exploring it.
