Details of implementation
At the venue, there will be a hands-on gacha (a type of gacha that allows you to win an original can badge).
Through the intuitive and easy-to-understand experience of "gotcha," a lead-in line was designed to encourage visitors to naturally stop by the booth and participate in the cultural and artistic initiatives.

Conditions for participation in the gacha are,

The "Sticky Note Art" project was held in the booth, where visitors could freely draw illustrations and messages on sticky notes as a way to promote culture and art.
To complete a circular project to find five keywords hidden in the venue.

With these two points, “participation in cultural and artistic experiences” itself leads to participation in the gacha.

The event was attended not only by children but also by many adults, and people of all ages were seen enjoying the gacha. The combination of hands-on content and gacha also promoted time spent at the booth and circulation within the venue.
