Do any of you watch those backward bidding channels on TV? You know the ones I mean, where you have to bid in a low price in order to try and win? Well now those sorts of bidding games are coming to Mobile!

Flycell have announced “Bid Hunter”, which is a new strategy game played both online and via mobile phones where players are challenged to come up with the lowest unique guess to win big ticket prizes.

In Bid Hunter, players can guess up to 30 times daily online at http://www.flycell.com/bid-hunter or from their mobile phones. The “hunter” with the lowest unique guess is the winner. Hunters receive real time text alerts or emails that help them along, making the game interactive and highly addicting.

“Flycell’s customers are sure to get a thrill from winning high-end items like big screen TVs and home theater systems simply by making the lowest unique guess,” says Lindsey Weinger, VP Web Experience at Flycell. “While the person with the fattest wallet will always win in a traditional auction, Bid Hunter turns that idea on its head and adds interactive features like text alerts that make it even more fun and addicting.”

Although this type of game is sometimes referred to as a “reverse auction,” it’s not really an auction at all. The object of the game is to guess the lowest number to win the prize. A guess does not represent any actual dollar value, and the prize is absolutely free for the winner, including the delivery.
