Available through Digital Bridges Wirelessgames.com channel, the advent calendar attracted players from all five continents and generated almost 10,000 individual players in the 25 days before Christmas 2000.

Each day players could access the calendar to reveal scenes of festive beauty, with one lucky winner chosen at random each day to receive a prize from Digital Bridges. After the results were collated, it became clear that Mobile Device Users from all around the world had been visiting the Wirelessgames Advent Calendar again and again.

The breakdown of winners shows that the prize winners came from countries including, France, Canada, England, Italy, Portugal, Wales, Holland, the United States of America, Scotland, Australia and Malaysia, proving that the wireless Internet has a truly global audience.

Kevin Bradshaw, CEO and founder of Digital Bridges Ltd., said, Digital Bridges believe that the wireless Internet is a global medium - like no other. Our UNITY technology was designed specifically to allow people all over the world, to interact with each other through mobile devices. We created the advent calendar as a simple, fun way of saying Thank You to all the Mobile Device Users who have played and supported Wirelessgames over the past 12 months. We were expecting a wide range of users to access the calendar, but the number of players and the number of countries they came from, was a Christmas bonus for us as well.
