LANGHORNE, Pa., Nov. 6, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Casual games publisher and
developer eGames, Inc. (Pink Sheets:EGAM) announced a worldwide publishing
agreement with Seppia Interactive today to distribute hidden object/match-3
hybrid game The Lost Inca Prophecy to retail stores across the globe with the
exception of Germany beginning this February. One of the leading matching games
of the year, The Lost Inca Prophecy was a top five seller at many of the
industry's most popular online game portals.
"The Lost Inca Prophecy is the perfect complement to our current retail
offerings, including Mystery Legends(TM): Sleepy Hollow, 4 Elements(TM), and
Enlightenus(TM)," said eGames Vice President, Sales and Marketing Rich Siporin.
"The game's unique combination of match-3 play and hidden object hunts further
diversifies our retail portfolio as we look to secure shelf space early next
year with other recently announced top-performing titles Adventures of Robinson
Crusoe and Liong: The Lost Amulets. Today we are publishing the highest quality
portfolio of game properties perhaps in the history of our company. We're
confident these properties will contribute positively to our financial results
in future quarters."
Players of The Lost Inca Prophecy find themselves following the dreams of Acua,
a young woman with a mysterious connection to the Inca civilization. By hunting
for lost scepters, restoring crumbling ruins, and matching Incan artifacts,
players piece together the puzzle to save an ancient people from certain
disaster.
"We are excited eGames will be bringing The Lost Inca Prophecy to retail," said
Seppia Interactive CEO Mihai Dragomir. "Players around the world will get to
join Acua and Juan and use their puzzle skills to save the Incan Empire from a
long-forgotten prophecy."
