#Escape2020

INTERACTIVE SOCIAL CAMPAIGN
THE IDEA

The year was cursed.
The escape was Kraken.

Tiger King. Sourdough. Zoom hell. We turned 2020 into a choose-your-own-adventure Twitter thread, putting fans in control of the Kraken. Their mission: survive the year. Their choices: deeply questionable.

01 / TWITTER CHOOSE-YOUR-OWN-ADVENTURE

Bad year. Worse choices.

A branching Twitter adventure where every reply led somewhere stranger. Fans chose their path through the chaos, with only one way out.

02 / SOCIAL REACTION

Twitter needed this.

Fans played along. Then passed it on. A year worth forgetting became a thread worth talking about.
