ASUS Announces Zoom to Wanda contest
Taiwanese smartphone maker ASUS has released a game to promote its ZenFone Zoom smartphone which allows participants to search for a mysterious character using the devices’ incredible 12X-magnification capability. The game has been named as Zoom to Wanda. The Asus Zenfone Zoom comes with 12X-magnification capability and ASUS claims it is “the world’s thinnest 3X optical-zoom smartphone”.
The game is based on a character named Wanda who, armed with an adventurous spirit, insatiable curiosity, and her ASUS ZenFone Zoom, is travelling the world and sharing her exotic travelling and dining experiences on her blog. Zoom to Wanda aims at instantly turning its players into investigative journalists who are tasked with following critical clues to chase down Wanda as she wanders through the most charming streets and indulges in the world’s best food.
Inspired by ZenFone Zoom’s incredible 12X-magnification capability, ASUS has used gigapixel-photo technology to create the Zoom to Wanda experience, immersing participants in incredible experiences in India, Italy, Japan, and beyond. ZenFone Zoom fans can explore these beautiful cities from a bird’s eye view and then zoom down to street level — all made possible by extreme-resolution imagery.
The Zoom to Wanda online challenge will run from today, March 21, 2016 until April 17, 2016 — and is open to players around the world. There is no charge for entry. Following the competition’s climax, the 20 participants with the highest scores will each be awarded a brand-new ZenFone Zoom. To take part, wanderlusters should visit here — and begin their hunt for Wanda.
More of Wanda’s friends can be discovered along the way too. Fans who find Wanda’s Instafamous friends will also be in the running for some great prizes, including ZenFone Zoom handsets.
