Tap to Play

The Tap To Play template allows the user to interact with the experience two times before the video completes and an end card is displayed.

When to use it?​

This template can allow for a longer experience and can easily be used for both playable ads and interactive end cards (IECs). It's a great template if your piece of gameplay has several key moments, for example, a character moving left and right to avoid enemies.

Required assets​

The following are the required assets in order to make this template a success.

  • Background video

  • Hint image

  • End card icon

  • Blurred 1st frame: The first frame of the video will be chosen, blurred and layered behind the video.
