California, U.S.A. (July 3, 2008) – Aeria Games is proud to announce the open beta of the highly anticipated free-2-play massive-multiplayer RPG, Stone Age 2.

Set in the prehistoric ages, Stone Age 2 brings a mixture of dinosaurs of unimaginable heights and invisible spirits who help humans roam altered terrains such as dungeons and arid desserts.

Catch cute dinosaur pals and raise them to be battle masters and fight primeval threats alongside friendly allies. Duel against other players and creatures by building up your team with a combination of over 200 dinosaur species – each with unique personalities and special abilities. Enter your dinosaur pals into battle tournaments or just ride them around town.

For a limited time, new players will have the ability to snatch up the following items, absolutely free, just for checking out the wonderful world of Stone Age 2.

• One Small Shell Axe – Arm yourself for adventure with this free weapon that’ll see you through many days of hard fighting!

• Ten Fruit of Perception – Each Fruit of Perception doubles the Experience you receive from battles for two hours – what a sweet snack!

• Five Wizard’s Feed Soups – Each cup of this mystical broth raises the Loyalty and Mood of one Pal straight to 100! Perfect for quickly turning a wild Pal into a trusted companion!

• Five Dinosaur Cookies – Because dinosaurs ate cookies too; it’s just that none of them fossilized so we have no record. You might want to try one of these when your endurance is low.

• One Fresh Milk – because cookies with no milk would simply be … barbarian of us.

One addition to open beta is a new tournament structure that will be available for all weight classes and they will run 24 hours a day seven days a week and feature instant prize distribution after each tournament has been completed.

Hampstead, NC, 07 May 2008

War is coming to your PC! Vast flotillas of warships under an umbrella of air power will soon be striking at bases across the Pacific ocean in a bid for total regional domination in KE Studios’ debut strategy title, War Plan Pacific. Shrapnel Games is looking for a few good men (or women, but really, how many women are into grand strategic wargames?) to ensure smooth sailing.

Even your grandmother probably has a computer capable of participating in the beta test.
Have an interest in a Pacific theater game that can completed from Pearl Harbor to the bombing of Nagasaki in a single evening.
Be able to fully participate in the beta test for approximately three months. Ideally you’ll talk, laugh, and cry in the beta forum about the game. Be prepared to vocalize your opinions, communicate ideas, and most of all give feedback. Beta testing isn’t all glitz and glamour ya know, you’re going to have to work.

And remember: Beta testing. It’s not just a job, it’s an adventure.

War Plan Pacific is a grand strategic wargame on the Pacific campaign during WWII for the PC. With roots firmly entrenched in the world of board games, War Plan Pacific is turn-based, highly playable, and easy to get into. It also just so happens to be playable in a single setting, something which can’t be said for your average PTO game.

Blending just the right amount of abstraction with reality, players fight for control of twenty-nine bases, seeking to achieve victory in either a quick, knock out punch or the long death of your opponent. Focusing on historical air and naval units (ground control is represented by sea control) play against the cunning AI or against a live opponent.

No release date or price point has been set yet, but stay tuned at www.shrapnelgames.com for all the latest news on War Plan Pacific. While there be sure to check out our complete catalog of award-winning independent titles spanning multiple genres, some of which are completely free! Shrapnel Games has been entertaining the world since 1999 and will soon be bringing War Plan Pacific, Eat Electric Death!, ETO:
European Theatre of Operations, and many more titles to you in the near future!
