adventure a-go-go game

work

Not only did I have a lot of fun working on this project with the good people at shift control media, but I also learned a stupendous number of useless facts as I wrote hundreds of trivia questions about America’s highways, byways and roadside attractions.

Project: Online game

Client: aloft hotels (owned by “W Hotels”)

Play the game!

This link launches the aloft hotels site. Click on “adventure a-go-go” in the menu bar at the bottom of the page to start the game.

And, because I couldn’t resist, underneath the image below is a sample question from the “Los Angeles to Portland” route to test your road trip trivia savvy.

Silicon Valley — Question 5

Micro or metal? Three of the following are tech companies from Silicon Valley. One is a Swedish Death Metal band. Find the rock and roll.

a. Agilent
b. Maxtor
c. Nvidia
d. Therion

And the answer is…

D. Therion! Their names might make them sound like masters of mayhem, but 3 out of 4 on this list are simply mild-mannered IT companies. Agilent, Maxtor and Nvidia all make software, but Therion rocks hardcore.
