Majesco’s Million Dollar Contest

Majesco is offering a ‘Race to Save Humanity’ $1,000,000 grand prize opportunity through their new contest that kicks off on June 9 to celebrate the upcoming launch of Advent Rising. Gamers should be on the look-out for hidden ‘A’ icons within the game’s levels.

The contest commences June 9, a week after the launch of Advent Rising and is limited to the first 500,000 copies of the game. Once a week for six weeks, an “Easter egg� in the form of the letter ‘A’ will be downloaded via Xbox Live and hidden within a level of the game. Majesco will distribute clues as to which level the icon resides in and then the race is on.

Once the egg is found, consumers will be given a code and prompted to log into the contest website using their Xbox Live Gamer Tag. The first person to do so is that week’s winner. The contest is open only to US and Canadian residents (void in MD, VT and in Quebec) who are 13 years or older. The contest ends August 15. Complete contest rules can be found online at www.adventtrilogy.com beginning May 31.

“A game of such epic proportions requires a promotion of equal stature and a million dollar play and win contest is certainly that,� said Ken Gold, vice president of Marketing for Majesco. “We are excited to team with Microsoft on such an innovative promotion in which we watch gamers compete to become a millionaire and win tons of other great prizes via Xbox Live.�
