Imagination Games Imagination Games is utilising QR Code technology to market its new magnetic battle game, Ka’lide. Ka’lide sees two players facing off against each other to score points by fl icking magnetic pucks onto a scoring mat. The scores change with every fl ick but as more and more magnets hit the scoring zones the magnets begin to interact causing different outcomes. This is the fi rst game in the Ka’lide range with extensions coming for 2012. The QR code on the front
of the box lets consumers understand the game-play at fi xture with a short video, accessed on smartphones equipped with a scanner app. Imagination says adding a QR code on the pack gives consumers insight into the game at the point of purchase. W:
