Branded and skinned by Campbell Ewald for Chicken of the Sea, the game is now also making a debut on Facebook via GSN's Games Application, the largest gaming platform on Facebook.

The casino-esque Undersea Treasure Match game originally launched on GSN's website March 9, 2011, is now on their Facebook game page. Similar to a slot-style video game, players click a button to cast up to nine fishing lines to match as many various undersea objects and Chicken of the Sea goodies as possible. When a player makes a successful match, they are awarded Mesmo tokens, which can be redeemed for additional game play. Undersea Treasure Match will be available on Facebook for a limited time and on GSN.com through August.

This game is part of the new Chicken of the Sea advertising and marketing campaign created by Campbell Ewald and introduced in March. This campaign also brought the iconic Chicken of the Sea Mermaid back to life in a series of online video and radio commercials.
