Disney Emoji Games

Users Collect Cartoon Emojis After Playing Games in 'Disney Emoji Blitz'

— July 11, 2016 — Tech
Mobile device owners can now text using their favorite Disney's characters in cartoon emoji form. In order to get emojis on a mobile device, the user will have to download the 'Disney Emoji Blitz' app. A user has to play matching games of three and complete missions on the app in order to access the hundreds of cartoon emojis from Disney and Pixar. In Design Taxi's opinion, the games on the app seem to be similar to 'Dots' and 'Candy Crush.'

Although the app for the new game is free, there is a catch -- it comes with advertising. Players will be given targeted ads from third parties as well as ads from The Walt Disney Family of Companies. Players can also purchase in-app products while playing the game.

The Disney Emoji Blitz will be available for both Android and iOS.
Trend Themes
1. Gamified Emoji Apps - Integrating gamification elements into emoji apps provides users with a fun and interactive way to collect and use their favorite character emojis.
2. In-app Advertising - Including targeted ads from third parties and Disney's family of companies within the app creates a revenue stream and monetization opportunity for emoji game developers.
3. Cross-platform Emoji Games - Developing emoji games that are accessible on both Android and iOS devices expands the potential user base and maximizes market reach.
Industry Implications
1. Mobile Gaming - Creating engaging and addictive emoji games can drive user engagement and revenue growth in the mobile gaming industry.
2. Entertainment and Media - Integrating popular cartoon characters and emojis from Disney and Pixar into mobile apps enhances user entertainment experiences and strengthens brand engagement.
3. Digital Advertising - Leveraging in-app advertising opportunities, such as targeted ads and product placements, within emoji games can generate advertising revenue and create new advertising channels.
