Pringles wanted to capture the attention of Europe’s frequently snacking gamers and prove its social powers to the gaming community. We brought the most antisocial character out of a real game and into the real world. He connected with millions of gamers and rose to fame, all before returning to his game for good as a more friendly character. The Pringles-fuelled zombie made it into the top ten most-watched streams globally, trended on Twitter in multiple countries and even generated his own fan art. Thanks to Frank, sales of Pringles increased 24.7%. The campaign was featured in numerous articles and publications, including the AdAge’s coveted list “The 30 Best Ads of the Year” at #10 in 2021.

Our character has since got a permanent seat in gaming culture, as an NPC that helps gamers thrive instead of trying to kill them off like in the past. Meet Frank in West of Dead. Available on XBOX, Steam and Playstation. Ads shot by "Skittles Man’s" director Conor Byrne.
