Design student Santiago Arraz has designed a game-like wine label as a prototype that adds a tic-tac-toe board to each bottle. The idea for this label is to encourage consumers to partake in a playful game in order to decide who buys the wine.

While the game can simply be played for fun as well, the increased competitive vibe is a fun way to increase the humor of this packaging. The tic-tac-toe board on the bottle is placed on chalkboard material. The phrase "who pays?" is written above the game board.

This creative game-like wine label is a fun way to increase consumer happiness and overall joy. The bottle of [Spanish Boulanger wine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chloe-wine-collection) is completely black with the white lettering, white game board and the name of the brand, which is located at the base of the bottle.
