The ROM Utrecht Region is pleased to announce the first investment in an entertainment game proposition called D-Drops. The investment was made from the HUL-PoC fund and underlines the ROM’s objective to actively support the entertainment gaming industry in the Utrecht region with financing options.
D-Drops lets players explore their city and discover treasure chests filled with real-world rewards. D-Drops can steer foot traffic to local businesses that subscribe to their service. Future earnings fund more treasures, ensuring continued player engagement. Additionally, they offer multinationals and big brands custom treasure hunts, interactive activations at events, festivals, expos, and token-gated hunts for communities.
The technology of D-Drops is fully developed in-house and links the blockchain (and the Internet) with physical locations, and with their unique validation system it is possible to validate user locations and IRL actions with 100% certainty. This enables D-Drops to create unique value propositions that reach campaign goals like no other.
