'''''Club BK''''', occasionally formatted without the space as '''''ClubBK''''', was a virtual world browser game developed by Designkitchen to promote [[Burger King]]. It had multiple promotional events tying into the live action Transformers movies. It shut down in November 2011.

==Gameplay==

Club BK was a standard virtual world game. Players could customize their characters & rooms, play minigames, and earn the in-game currency called Crowns. There was also a chat system, though it was a 1-on-1 safe chat using a set of pre-selected phrases.

The game's main hub area was a living planet-sized spaceship named Brian, though players could go to other locations and complete quests.

There were two known events, one in July 2009 with the release of Burger King's [[Burger King#2009 Revenge of the Fallen promotion|Revenge of the Fallen toys]], and one in July 2011 with the release of their [[Burger King#2011 Dark of the Moon promotion| Dark of The Moon toys.]] The 2009 event allowed players to wear a helmet based on Optimus Prime.<ref>{{citesocial|quote=|link=http://www.ericravenstein.com/work/burger-king-club-bk/|name=Eric Ravenstein's portfolio|site=|title=Burger King Club BK}} We know the helmet is from the 2009 event because it is featured alongside Marmaduke, which dates this screenshot to 2010, before the second event occurred.</ref> It also involved a minigame called Free Mission City.<ref>{{citesocial|quote=PLAY THE NEW TRANSFORMERS FREE MISSION CITY!|link=https://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/burger-king-starts-transform-your-way-promotion/16277/|name=ClubBK|site=Seibertron.com|title=Burger King Starts 'Transform YOUR WAY' Promotion|year=2009|month=6|day=22|(defunct=)}} Screenshot of a message that would have been displayed on Club BK promoting the event.</ref>

==Notes==
* A Bumblebee outfit was also created, as shown on the design portfolio of Derek Dietrich-Muller. While it is ''likely'' this released at the same time as the Optimus Prime helmet, there is no known documentation of it appearing in-game.<ref>{{citesocial|quote=|link=https://www.derekdietrich-muller.com/1601-burger-king|name=Derek Dietrich-Muller's portfolio|title=Burger King ClubBK}} </ref>
