In the bustling heart of the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center, from March 21 to March 24, 2024, a unique constellation aligned to create an out-of-this-world experience for attendees of PAX East. Among the plethora of booths and displays clamoring for attention, one particularly delicious and caffeinated universe stood out: the Dunkin’ booth, masterfully elevated to the next level by the creative minds at Big Fish Promotions. The mission? To merge the iconic flavors of Dunkin’ with the adrenaline-fueled world of gaming, resulting in an unforgettable experience that resonated perfectly with the demographic tapestry of PAX East attendees.
Imagine a universe where glowing donuts orbit like stars and steaming coffee cups comet through space, alongside gamer headsets and joysticks as asteroids. This is “Dunkin’ Invaders,” a clever twist on classic arcade action that melds Dunkin’ favorites with gaming gear. Players aim to strike these Dunkin-themed targets with gaming balls before they burst, all against a backdrop of a starry sky. The arena? Our state-of-the-art Multiball LED display that not only modernizes the experience but captivates both gamers and coffee lovers, merging Dunkin’ culture with gaming in a thrilling showdown.
The game itself was a marvel of customization, featuring a leaderboard that not only sparked competitive spirit among the players but also embodied Dunkin’s inclusive, fun-loving brand identity. “Game On” wasn’t just a tagline; it was a call to arms for those ready to dive into this immersive Dunkin’ galaxy, where victory tasted as sweet as a Boston Cream Donut.
Alejandro and Jensen kept everything moving and helped to pivot in the moment to adjust for crowd flow.

Merch That’s Out of This World
In the Dunkin’ universe, no hero goes unrewarded. Participants didn’t just walk away with a high score but also got to pick from an array of iconic merch. From orange bucket hats that could double as camouflage in a pumpkin spice latte, to futuristic sunglasses perfect for viewing the next eclipse (or hiding the aftermath of a gaming marathon), Dunkin’ made sure everyone left with a piece of this memorable universe.
The Ultimate Prize: A Dunkin’-Themed Odyssey
The icing on the cake (or the glaze on the donut, if you will) was the Dunkin’ PAX East Convention Sweepstakes. In a grand finale that could only be dreamed up by the most fervent of Dunkin’ devotees, a custom computer awaited one lucky winner. This wasn’t just any rig; it was a StarForge Voyager II Elite Gaming PC, customized with a Dunkin’-themed back panel that ensured even the most intense gaming sessions would be fueled by the spirit of Dunkin’.
