Campaign Overview

Aradena Games, a pioneering Web3 gaming platform for desktops, faced limited options for desktop app advertising and a tight launch window. Aradena needed a targeted approach to reach native Web3 users, drive sign-ups, and boost token sales at their Token Generation Event (TGE). Here's how Aradena's marketing team used the Blockchain-Ads platform to run their campaign and achieve their advertising goals.

Strategy

The marketing team at Aradena executed a comprehensive campaign with strategic targeting:

  • Audience Targeting: Targeted Play-to-Earn Gamers and Web3 Gamers interested in PC/Console Gaming and RPG & MMO for audiences invested in high-production narrative adventures
  • Retargeting Strategy: Re-engaged users who downloaded desktop client but hadn't made token purchases
  • Creative Messaging: The campaign emphasized Aradena's unique blend of tactical trading card gameplay and 3D Hex battler visuals, highlighting the game's play-to-earn model and full digital ownership of assets with personalized messaging for different audience segments.

Results

In just 30 days and with a limited budget, the campaign achieved impressive results:

  • 3X ROI on Token Sales campaigns.
  • $2 Cost Per Acquisition (CPA) for Sign-Ups
  • $4 CPA for frequently active players
  • 2x Return on Ad Spend (ROAS) at TGE
