Brief

The task at hand was to professionally design a series of illustrated boxes and their corresponding interactions for Gainon's newest feature, aptly named "Mystery Boxes." Gainon operates as a rewards and gifting platform, primarily targeting young adults and tech-savvy individuals.

The concept revolves around three distinct levels of mystery boxes available for purchase: dope, epic, and legendary.

Upon purchasing and unlocking these boxes, users have the opportunity to unveil items that hold a value commensurate with the level they chose, or potentially even exceed it, creating an element of surprise reminiscent of a lucky draw.

The overarching objective was to entice users and pique their curiosity by captivating their attention through visually striking graphics. The graphic artwork for the boxes was crafted with meticulous attention to detail, aiming to create a sense of intrigue and anticipation.

By igniting the user's desire to explore the unknown contents of the box, the intention was to foster a sense of excitement and engagement, thereby encouraging repeat purchases and enhancing their overall experience on the platform.

Additionally, it was crucial to instill a sense of anticipation within the users, ensuring they eagerly looked forward to acquiring and opening a mystery box.

By orchestrating a compelling and immersive interaction design, the user's enthusiasm would be amplified, increasing the likelihood of them desiring to relive this captivating experience time and again.

Ultimately, the combination of enticing graphic artwork, seamless interactions, and the element of surprise sought to create an engaging and rewarding user experience within Gainon's Mystery Boxes feature.
