How Yodo1 Made a Comeback with Ski Safari Through a Creative TikTok Campaign
The Chinese mobile developer Yodo1 reached out to GameInfluencer to activate a creative TikTok launch campaign to celebrate their 10th anniversary (GZ btw!). A campaign that we could not miss out on as a lot of nostalgic feelings are associated with this game.
If someone does not know Ski Safari, it is the downhill runner casual arcade game that probably most of you have played before.
The difference now is that Ski Safari relaunched as a FREE game for their 10th Anniversary.
Together with Yodo1 we executed 3 different creative concepts with 5 different content creators on TikTok. We collaborated with different types of TikTok channels including game meme, sports enthusiasts, and ski/skateboarding channels.
Campaign Goal
For the 10th Anniversary of Ski Safari, we collaboratively decided to focus on the US market as it is one of the biggest mobile markets in the west. It allows us to have better access to a multitude of large TikTok content creators that would fit well to the campaign.
The launch of the campaign highly focused on organic TikTok posts with content creators, while also creating spark ads for additional reach.
With a campaign duration of 3 weeks, we successfully managed to hit over nearly 1.2 million views with the total video playtime being over 4,500 hours. The creative concepts provided by the GameInfluencer team lead to a successful game comeback.
Together we acquired more users for Ski Safari, grew game revenue, and provided a heavy organic uplift through the TikTok platform.

Influencers like Bob Reese had over 12% engagement on their TikTok post, which is a fabulous result for a platform that usually sees 3-5% engagement.
The creative content on TikTok really made a difference in how the campaign was perceived, as well fitting integrations into the influencer’s “usual” content helped elevate the results for the campaign.
