Following on from the facebook game we wanted to give players the ability to take The Great Niggle Nobble with them away from the computer screen. So we created an innovative solution for the small screen.
"Niggles are all around you. They're where you live, where you work, they're on the streets, in the parks, they're everywhere you go. By downloading the free augmented reality iPhone app, the first app of its kind, you can help O2 nobble broadband niggles wherever you are."
The iPhone game completely immerses the player in a fun, unique and unexpected way. Using the phone compass and GPS we could plot the players postion. Then when they held up their phone they could see the niggles lurking around them Augmented Reality using the phones camera.
The iPhone and Facebook games are intrinsically linked allowing players to rack up points anywhere at anytime.
Unfortunately the O2 Home Broadband integrated campaign came to a close early 2011. As both games were part of this campaign O2 closed the Facebook competition and removed the iPhone game from the app store.
The Great Niggle Nobble iPhone game was only available in the Uk while the O2 TV campaign ran in 2010. It was pulled from the app store probably because O2 stopped running the competition and campaign it was linked to. Bit of a shame really.
