Description

RoleRoad offers global travellers with local experience packages through a persona roleplay app with interactive technology. Hong Kong tourism has used ‘Shopping paradise’ as a promotion strategy for many years. Because of the popularity of online purchasing, shopping in Hong Kong is losing its advantages. There is an urgent need for creative change. RoleRoad believes that storytelling through a local persona in a first-person perspective is the best way to immerse yourself in a comprehensive and entertaining experience. After arriving in Hong Kong and downloading our app, travellers can choose stories of Hong Kongers. They will become the main character of the story, walkthrough local locations, shops, restaurants, and experience local life from a local perspective. Through RoleRoad, we hope to create new and fun Hong Kong travelling experience to global travellers, promote local brands and facilitate the recovery of Hong Kong tourism.
