LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 10, 2001

Made by KIDDIES Inc. announced the release of the highly anticipated Extreme Vegas(TM) (www.extremevegas.com), a real-time massively multiplayer online casino game and entertainment portal, the most extravagant online interactive casino experience ever.

The beta version of Extreme Vegas will be available for the public to download on July 16, 2001.

Extreme Vegas represents a new class of online casino gaming, blending the best of graphics and state-of-the-art technology to create games not just on the merit of gameplay but equally focused on fostering social interaction, relationships and building of community.

Unlike most online games, which traditionally have focused purely on gameplay, Extreme Vegas exponentially advances the genre by adding a fundamental gaming element -- a role-playing concept -- taking casino games to the next level of reality.

A key goal of Extreme Vegas players is to participate in the co-development of an online community that bridges exciting casino gameplay and compelling, immersive interactive experiences. The games not only are realistic and fun but also mimic a major draw of actual Vegas gaming, the social qualities of the environment, which serve as a catalyst for interaction.

Extreme Vegas is not an actual gambling Web site; rather, it blends the excitement of Las Vegas and traditional gameplay, providing the chance to win prizes and achieve many other goals. The most important of these is to raise your player "status" by obtaining certain levels of wealth, acquiring various "items" on a quest to earn the ultimate player status of "High Roller."

Extreme Vegas: fiction or reality? You be the judge!

Extreme Vegas is a unique, massively multiplayer network game targeted at the rapidly growing demographic of casual gamers.

Made by KIDDIES is currently working on a 3-D, photo-realistic, ancient-Egyptian-themed retail version of the Extreme Vegas casino game targeted at the rapidly growing demographic of casual gamers. It is expected to be released in the first quarter of 2002.
