Current NBA star Blake Griffin is the face of the campaign and the concept of the game is simple: beat your opponent’s average score over three dunks to proceed onto the next level. While the concept is straightforward, beating one of the NBA’s top big men in a dunk contest will not be so easy.

Available through Kia’s Facebook page and set on the iconic street basketball courts of Venice Beach, California in a tightly tuned 3-D format, you’ll first come face-to-face with a rather youthful pre-school Blake, but as the levels intensify, you’ll gain the chance to challenge an adolescent Blake and eventually the sharp shooting Clipper’s star in his current form — deadly!

In addition to the option of choosing from three characters at the beginning of the game, Take on Blake offers and exciting twist: users are encouraged to create custom characters with their webcam or Facebook profile picture. After users build their personal character and select their team’s jersey, they are now ready to compete against friends and other gamers online.
