Wild Earth Being Published Worldwide by Digital Jesters

Seattle, WA - 2005.06.27 -- Super X Studios® is partnering with UK-based Digital Jesters to bring their long-anticipated game, Wild Earth®, to market worldwide on PC CD-ROM this holiday season.

Developed by Seattle based Super X Studios, Wild Earth is a graphically spectacular safari adventure set in the heart of Africa, offering gamers a breathtaking journey through the Serengeti National Park. The concept, which centers on exploration of the spectacular African terrain and photography of an immense array of beautifully and accurately rendered indigenous flora and fauna, has also been developed by Super X Studios as a motion simulator thrill ride recently installed in several locations worldwide, including the Philadelphia and San Diego zoos.

"Wild Earth is a unique concept which we're confident will appeal to a broad range of people, including non-traditional gaming audiences like female gamers, young children and families. The non-violent gameplay, topical subject matter and breathtaking visuals give the game immense mass market potential and we're delighted to be working with Digital Jesters to bring Wild Earth to as wide an audience as possible," James Thrush, owner of Super X Studios commented.

Having already secured a number of innovation awards at the Independent Games Festival, Wild Earth has caught the attention of numerous commercial brands, and Digital Jesters is currently in discussion with several key sponsorship partners, all of whom are extremely keen to share some involvement in the game.

"We're extremely pleased to have signed such a unique and widely appealing title. With the constant criticism over violence in video games, it's fantastic to be able to offer a product that gives gamers something completely different. Wild Earth has afforded us some incredible opportunities with a number of large, globally recognised brands and we're very excited about the partnership possibilities available," Terry Malham, Digital Jesters co-founder and commercial director added.

A tie-in with record-breaking yachtswoman Ellen Macarthur for the firm's second release Virtual Skipper 3 ensured the game received widespread attention among the elusive non-gamer, and firmly placed the publisher on the map. The firm has enjoyed three top 10 PC hits, one of which is from the developers Cyanide, creators of Pro Rugby Manager and now DJ is expanding its operation to cover additional territories.
