Releases DataClash on AT&T PocketNet CAMBRIDGE,
UK (September 11, 2000) nGame, specializing in the production of
cutting edge interactive entertainment announces the launch of DataClash,
the follow up to their first WAP game, Alien Fish Exchange.
DataClash, available on AT&T PocketNet under the entertainment channel
will be nGame’s second title offered at www.ngame.com
free to all visitors
by the end of September, 2000. DataClash
is a tense hacking game of adrenaline, strategy and nerve that positions
players into head to head cyber-combat by allowing players to compete
against any other player on the network. Not only can players attack
their opponent, they also have a selection of over 90 different offensive
and defensive ‘programs’. "DataClash
extends nGame’s mission to build worldwide gaming communities with
its rapidly developing content for WAP and other platforms. This compelling
new game demonstrates nGame’s mission to push the current boundaries
of the mobile and interactive gaming experience available to the public
by adding a heightened level of interaction between players beyond Alien
Fish Exchange," said John Brimacombe, CEO of nGame. DataClash
follows the success of Alien Fish Exchange, which has already achieved
35,000 registered users on AT&T’s PocketNet in under two months.
This popularity reinforces the reputation of nGame producers as providers
of fully interactive heavyweight games for the WAP platform.
nGame plans to maintain its momentum with further US and UK WAP releases
Merchant Princes, a trading game, combat games Dragon Army and Carrier
Force and versions of DataClash and Alien Fish Exchange for digital TV. To
support its multiple distribution partnerships, nGame offers a comprehensive
service, writing custom content to order or licensing titles from
its existing range. It has also designed its own revolutionary convergent
media server as the benchmark technology for producers who aim to
reach cross-platform audiences . Further
