The online game will run from June 24th – July 23rd. Players of the game will be asked to spot the differences on two seemingly identical photos from a selection of Accor Hotels' properties located around the world. The players win points and advance to the next round based on the speed with which they find the differences. Each round will showcase a single property's key features, allowing the player to experience the breadth and diversity of the Accor Hotel brands the world over. Players can share their scores on Facebook and Twitter, challenging their friends to try to beat their score.
