Gain the functionality of a top gaming portal without burdening your IT department or web group with an extra assignment.

Blockdot creates game portal microsites that utilize the technologies and tools associated with a full-scale gaming portal.

These microsites support the game (hosting and registration) and the activities associated with the games (scoreboards and e-mail challenges).  In addition, they house tools for our clients to gauge campaign performance and metrics.

These game portals are built off the Kewlbox.com gaming platform and give our clients a speed to market/best of practices solution.

An overview of our standard game portal offering is listed below.
