Singapore - The Republic of Singapore Navy (RSN) has launched its first ever Facebook game ‘Battlefleet: Singapore’.

The game launch comes parallel to the release of major UIP blockbuster movie ‘Battleship’ which has just hit the local cinemas.

The Facebook game will be running from 9 April to 7 May 2012 and is the first of RSN’s attempt in the Facebook gaming field. Its other digital ventures include mobile games via QR codes and an online reality TV series.

The game will be made available on the CyberPioneer page, the official page of the armed forces where the highest scorer every day will be rewarded with two tickets to the movie ‘Battleship’ as well as stand a chance to win the grand prize of a new iPad.

The game devised and produced by Y&R Singapore, is part of RSN's ongoing ‘Go Beyond Horizons’ campaign.

“By uniquely leveraging the popularity of this major movie, combined with the growing trend of social media usage and Facebook gaming, it allows us to create a campaign that is totally refreshing to our target audience,” Kea Sui Hong, senior account director Y&R Singapore, said.
