CITRIX TAKES ON ITS COMPETITION

When Citrix wanted to go after its competitor VMware head-on, Bluetext designed a gamificiation experience that pitted the two contenders against each other. The teaser video features the training regime of a real world champion fighter, and leads to an interactive rock-em, sock-em fighters game with the Citrix kid taking on Victor Machismo– and winning of course. Key messages fill the screen with every punch.
