The FlipCode Mystery

An immersive multi-channel campaign by Samsung in cooperation with the Swiss pop culture TV series "Tschugger", which enables the target group to crack an interactive crime case involving the all-new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip5 phone. The perfect symbiosis of traditional TV and digital activation.

Case study

Overview

For the launch we are pairing the all-new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip5 with the most successful and most-watched pop culture TV series in Switzerland: "Tschugger". With this strong partnership, Samsung benefits from Tschugger's cult status, its pop culture image and the already extremely large Swiss-German fan base, which is congruent with Samsung's target group. Based on this partnership, we are creating the immersive digital campaign "The FlipCode Mystery".

Social Mini Series

While the whole of Switzerland is eagerly awaiting the 3rd season of “Tschugger”, we are launching an exclusive spin-off mini-series (4 episodes) on all social channels one month before the official start of the season. In this crime series, everything revolves around the mafia, a 10'000 franc bounty and a forgotten mobile phone unlock code for Z Flip5 (aka FlipCode). However, only our fans can search for, find and decipher this vital, lost mobile phone unlock code. And they will do so live during the TV broadcast of the original 3rd „Tschugger“ season on SRF.
