Arabian Nights For Three
Visiware due to publish third episode in Arabian Nights adventure.
Saddle your camels and pull on your flip-flops as Visiware is set to publish Arabian Nights: Palace Mysteries, the third episode in the world's first ever serialised PC CD-ROM title to be sold exclusively over the Internet, on August 28th 2000.
The benefits of exclusive Internet publishing to the customer lie in the absence of publishing, distribution and retail costs. As a result, this
scimitar-wielding title has managed to slash it's price down to an impressive UKP3.99 for each of the six episodes, or UKP14.49 for the complete game. At a time when computer game prices have been criticised for being too high by consumers and the industry alike, Arabian Nights is a refreshing oasis in a hotly overpriced market.
The savings made through distribution and publishing have not only been passed on to the player but also reinvested in quality, cutting-edge game development.
The first episode of Arabian Nights, including the game engine, is available absolutely free, via a massive magazine covermount and Internet campaign. Alternatively, gamers can simply point their web browsers towards www.visiware.com. This is the first taste of the Arabian Nights adventure and will be followed by new episodes, available for monthly download, for the following six months.
The first free episode of Arabian Nights is available at www.visiware.com, or via covermount disk on most leading games and PC magazines. The following episodes will be available every month for UKP3.99 per episode, or UKP 14.49 for all seven episodes in advance.
