Australia, January 2020: From Wednesday, McDonald’s is giving Australians the chance to win instant prizes like a free Big Mac, fries or sundae, via the launch of Macca’s Mini Games. The easy to play Mini Games will be available throughout February on the mymacca’s app.

Macca’s Mini Games offers three gameplays that customers can explore to win a free or discounted menu item. These fun, quick and easy to experience games include:

• Totes A-Maze with a goal to navigate a labyrinth made of fries;

• Lucky Dip with a goal to dunk a giant Chicken McNugget into one of Macca’s iconic sauces; and

• Mini Mini Golf with a goal to score a hole-in-one off a put-put golf tee.

  For a game requiring a little more skill, and with VISA cash prizes on offer, there is also Macca’s Run, a race against time where the player runs through a McDonald’s-themed obstacle course. To access this game, customers simply need to make a purchase in the mymacca’s app.

  To start winning their favourite Macca’s menu items, customers can download the mymacca’s app, play Macca’s Mini Games and then head into their nearest McDonald’s restaurant to redeem prizes daily.

  Brent Clarke, Director of Digital at McDonald’s Australia said, “We know our customers love interacting with us in the mymacca’s app, and believe this fun, limited-time addition to our app is going to be a hit.

  “We’re excited to launch the unique gamified experience, Macca’s Mini Games, where everyone who plays comes away a winner.”

  Macca’s Mini Games is available through the mymacca’s app for new and existing users. The mymacca’s app is available for download on iOS via the Apple App Store and Android via Google Play.
