The [gaming app](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gizmo-app) tells the story of a guy on a mission to recover a set of cassette tapes for his girlfriend by taking out monsters in a side-scrolling-style game. Each time a monster is defeated, the app reveals one name of a band that will be playing the festival. Although you could easily get this information by going to the Primavera Sound site, or by looking at a poster, this way is far more interactive and fun. Plus, by playing the game, fans with the highest scores will win sweet prizes ahead of the 2015 music festival this year. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.1/10 - Popularity: 7% | Activity: 18% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Mobile](https://www.trendhunter.com/mobile) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Gamified Festival Apps:** Opportunity for music festivals to engage attendees by announcing lineup through interactive gaming apps. - **Engaging Event Promotions:** Chance for entertainment events to enhance promotional efforts by incorporating gamification and interactivity. - **Interactive Fan Experiences:** Potential to create immersive and interactive experiences for fans through gamified apps and activities. ### Where This Applies - **Music Festivals:** Disruptive innovation opportunity for music festivals to leverage gamified apps to announce lineups and engage attendees. - **Gaming Industry:** Chance for the gaming industry to collaborate with entertainment events and music festivals to develop engaging and interactive applications. - **Marketing and Advertising:** Opportunity for marketing and advertising professionals to explore gamified approaches in promoting events and engaging audiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Musician-Themed Online Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fortnite-festival.md) - [Poster-Inspired Music Playlists](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lineupsupply.md) - [Interactive Gamified Restaurant Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baoverse-app.md) - [Gamified Travel Companions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/countryquest.md) - [Gamer Organization Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skich.md) - [Gamified In-Airport Activations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/in-airport-activation.md) - [Gamified Feature Dating Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cued-up.md) - [AR-Powered Cereal Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/general-mills-1.md) - [Musical Makeup Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/full-volume-makeup.md)
