TheTreeGame is the best way to bring friends and family together for the holiday season. Spreading the holiday cheer has never been easier. When you see a car that is transporting a tree on top, wearing reindeer antlers and nose, or has a wreath on the front, you get points! Play against family and friends and track the competition through the live leaderboard. TheTreeGame’s in-app chat functionality allows for friendly banter and an easy way to stay connected through the holidays. Your daily commute or venture to the mall for shopping will never be the same. How to get started 1. The group leader downloads the app and creates a group 2. The group leader sends the unique group link to those that they’d like to participate in the TreeGame season 3. Participants download the app from the unique link and create a username to join the group 4. Once in the group, let the fun begin! How to play TheTreeGame season runs annually from Thanksgiving Day at 5PM through Christmas Day at 12PM When you see a vehicle that is transporting a tree on top, wearing reindeer antlers and nose, or has a wreath on the front, you get points! Tree on vehicle= 1 point Reindeer outfit on vehicle= 3 points Wreath on vehicle = 5 points To record your points, simply open the app, select the appropriate image correlated to what you saw, and your points are automatically recorded and updated in the live leaderboard for all participants to see and track! Whoever has the most points at the close of TheTreeGame season is deemed the winner and keeps bragging rights until the next season begins. TheTreeGame is based on honor and integrity. Participants who report false points or cheat will be placed on the naughty list! And your friends probably won’t invite you back for next season! DO NOT RECORD POINTS, CHAT, OR USE THIS APP IN ANY MANNER WHILE DRIVING OR IN AN UNSAFE CAPACITY
