Sir Mix-A-Lot Likes Big … Facebook Games

Oh. My. God, Becky. Look at this game.
Rapper Sir Mix-A-Lot of “Baby Got Back” fame has just popped the top on a hilarious new Facebook venture.
Called MixNMatch, the game challenges you to answer either-or questions. The catch is that you have to answer them the way another person would. For example, you might have to guess whether Sir Mix-A-Lot prefers zombies or vampires or whether a friend of yours would pick a front rub over a back rub. You can also pose similar questions to your own friends.
If your guesses line up with the celeb’s or friend’s picks, you earn points. The points can be redeemed for virtual goods such as a Sir Mix-A-Lot video shout-out or an exclusive track. If you’re particularly skilled at guessing the rapper’s preferences, you can even win a ride with him in his Lamborghini.
What makes the game giggle-worthy is the animated Sir Mix-A-Lot that coaches players through each round, complete with voice-overs.
It’s a fun concept, and one that we can imagine quite a few celebrities using to engage with their fans.
The game comes from Giant Thinkwell, an interactive agency that specializes in creating online entertainment vehicles for celebrities. MixNMatch is Giant Thinkwell’s first game, and it’s cute and funny enough that we would like to see more from this shop.
