If you see a group of people on
the streets, arms extended holding their phones aloft, don’t be alarmed. They
are playing RB Quest- the new augmented reality (AR) based mobile game by
Dhiraagu.
RB Quest is a fun and exciting game
that uses a player’s mobile phone camera to locate and collect as many Raalhu
Bis or RBs (generated by AR technology) in a player’s immediate real-life
environment. Another fun feature of the game is the central character, an
animated avatar called Kalo who assists players through their quest to get RBs,
score promotional offers from partners and win other prizes.
The game was unveiled tonight at
a special function held at Seahouse Brasserie located at Dhiraagu Head Office. At
the event, Dhiraagu announced a special RB Quest competition that would run
from 25 August to midnight 29 August 2017, with daily prizes as well as three
grand prizes for customers who are able to collect the most RBs over the
competition period. Dhiraagu is giving away an AppleWatch Series2 as the daily
prize for customers who collect the most RBs every day. The first Grand Prize
for the final leaderboard is a trip for two to Europe, Second Grand Prize is a
digital pack that includes a Macbook
Pro, Samsung S8 and Playstation 4. The Third Grand Prize is a three
night stay for two at Sheraton Maldives.
Speaking to the press, Dhiraagu’s
Chief Marketing Officer, Ms. Isabelle Hajri said “RB Quest marks a significant
milestone in the Maldivian gaming scene. This is the first time a Maldivian company
has designed a mobile game themed around the Maldivian way of life. We are
always seeking to bring exciting innovations and we are confident that RB Quest
would prove a big hit.”
RBQuest is available for download
both on the Google Playstore and iOS App Store.
