    Hi,

    We have a free game that is getting very good press and therefore traffic, and we want to monetize it showing ads. However, we did some things different so it seems we don't fit what is expected from a web site to get ads, or at least we don't know where to look for ads. Our site is www.alteraction.com

    The game is a five epsiodes interactive novel made in shockwave. Players can play the first two episodes from their browser. So we also can place some banners around the window of the game and we can also call web pages (ads) every time users enter episode 2. So we can show full screen ads there.


    Then, users need to download the whole five episodes, but we require them to play it online also, so we can deliver web pages every time they enter a new episode. Players play an average of 4 times, 5 epsiodes, which means 20 breaks to deliver full screen ads. We believe player may be willing to check two or three ads per break. We want to offer a fair exchange.

    Do you have any suggestions which ad network may work for us? Or any other opinion?

    Thanks

    You may want to try MochiAds. I've never used them personally and I'm not sure if it'll work with Shockwave, but apparently they pay pretty well and they're pretty reliale.

    I would go with Google adsense ads even though the payout might be extremely low.
