PROBLEM
NYT Games had a vision to launch a Year in Review campaign to honor users and their achievements in 2022. Unfortunately, due to legal constraints, we faced challenges in incorporating personal information, making it considerably more difficult to execute the campaign. The absence of personalization presented us with a new challenge: "How can we make these facts relevant and engaging for people?"
SOLUTION
We combined facts with gameplay tips, framing them in a manner that, although not personalized to each individual, offers delightful and unexpected insights (like trivia!). Our aim was to entice people to either continue to play or be part of these stats and join the Games community.
