Background
Snickers had been facing penetration decline among the younger generation. How would we capture this elusive group? 
Gaokao, a perfect platform for Snickers. Each year, there are 90-100Mil middle and high school students in China studying for their entrance exams. Our goal was to position Snickers as their ultimate ammunition in keeping their game up in exam season.

Idea
In line with the “YNYWYH” brand story, we created hunger monsters, dramatizing what you become when you study hungry: Sleepy Cat, Confused Fish, Agitated, Raging Bull. We brought these monsters to life in a 2D gaming world, possessing and taking over the popular pop group, TFBOYS – with Snickers ultimately defeating the hunger monsters. 
We launched on Tencent and Sina Weibo, two of the most popular media platforms among young generations.
