Anchor 1
3D Room Environment
A 3D room environment designed to offer a exploratory gamified experience to our customers. Users can move around using WASD and mouse on web, thumb movements on mobile, and by physically moving around in the VR experience. There are interactable objects such as the Christmas tree for the decoration experience, and other objects throughout the room for a side quest mission.
Choosing Decorators
Once you click on the tree, you are in the tree decorator mode. The experience begins from choosing the type of tree, ornaments, toppers, garland, and skirts to fully design the Christmas tree of your own. Certain items may or may not be available depending on the product availability of your chosen local Canadian Tire store.
Decorating the Tree
After selecting the ornaments that you want to decorate the tree with, you can simply drag and drop, and place the ornaments right onto the tree. Further adjust the view of the tree by zooming and rotating to decorate the entire tree. Items that are applied to the tree are automatically added to the cart for purchase later on.
Checkout
Items added on the tree are automatically added to the cart. Once items are checked out, customers have an option to either pickup at their local Canadian Tire store, and have them directly delivered to their home address.
NFT Quest Challenge
Adding more to the shopping experience, there are hidden clues throughout the room for a chance to redeem a code that wins one of 100 Canadian Tire NFTs. Users will go around the room, finding these hidden clues by interacting with other objects that highlight.
