The Chaotic Online Game Experience continues to increase in popularity, with more than 11 million online cards registered and more than one million unique visitors. Average visitor time on the www.ChaoticGame.com Website has increased significantly since the October 2007 launch of the site, now averaging nearly 12 minutes per visit.
Chaotic is making its international debut as well, with the TV series and cards now available in Australia (where it airs on Network 10), Israel (Children’s Channel/Noga Communications), and South Africa (MNET), with new territories scheduled to be added throughout 2008.
“It’s been exciting to watch the popularity of the Chaotic Trading Card Game grow over the past few months and we look to ignite even more enthusiasm with the launch of the new Zenith of the Hive series and the national Organized Play program,” said Bryan C. Gannon, President and CEO of TC Digital Games. “This will undoubtedly elevate player excitement to a whole new level.”
Chaotic is the first property specifically utilizing patented technology to seamlessly integrate trading card game play with interactive Web-based functionality. Using this technology, each Chaotic Trading Card is enabled with a unique alphanumeric code that allows Chaotic players to upload their personal card collection onto the Chaotic Online Game at www.ChaoticGame.com for no additional cost. Additionally, the destination features three-on-three gameplay functionality, a Web-based trade sector that allows users to trade their Chaotic Cards online with other players as well as web-based messaging and forum discussions.
Complementing the Chaotic Trading Card Game is the Chaotic animated TV series, which airs daily on the Jetix block of Toon Disney and Saturday mornings on the 4Kids TV block on FOX stations nationwide. The series has been the top-rated Saturday morning show for Boys 6-11 on broadcast television and scored season-high ratings in several other key demographics during the past few weeks. Additionally, the Chaotic animated series is a hit in Canada where the show is the network’s #1 ranked program among Boys 2-11 (A.C. Nielsen 9/3/07–1/19/08) on Teletoon. The series follows the adventures of a group of teens that are fans of the Chaotic Trading Card and Online Game.
