We received the following: WILDSIDE MADISON, Wisconsin – For years, card-game players have enjoyed the random unpredictability of 'wild' cards to the games they play. Now a new dice game offers a twist on the old theme. WILDSIDE™ is the dynamic dice game where all players roll specially designed dice, and race to find a match. The first player to spot a match wins the round, and the matching dice. But unless a player rolls at least one 'wild' die, they cannot match another player's dice. "Game players have always enjoyed the energy and excitement a wild element brings to a game," said Mark Osterhaus, Out of the Box Publishing president. "Our goal was to create an on-the-edge-of-your-seat experience for the participants by integrating this feature to WILDSIDE." WILDSIDE is for 2-4 players, ages 8 to adult. WILDSIDE is only available at specialty toy and gift retailers - at a suggested retail of $12.99. 10 Days in Africa MADISON, Wisconsin – Walk from Kenya to Tanzania, take a 4-wheel drive from Morocco to Mali, or fly from South Africa to the Congo. Anything's possible in Out of the Box Publishing's new board game 10 Days in Africa™. Touring by plane, car, and on foot, players chart their course from start to finish using destination and transportation tiles. By means of clever planning - and a little luck - players race to be the first to complete their own 10 Day journey. No journey, or game, is ever the same! "Africa is only the first location featured in our series of Geoplay games," said Mark Osterhaus, Out of the Box Publishing president. "For people who love travel, or who love the challenge of creative problem solving, the 10 Days series will make a great holiday gift." Future 10 Days game titles will include: 10 Days in the USA, 10 Days in Europe, and many others. 10 Days in Africa is for 2-4 players, ages 10 to adult. 10 Days in Africa is only available at specialty toy and gift retailers - at a suggested retail of $19.99. otb-games.com Back to 4th Quarter 2003 List of News Items Back to Master List of News Items Back to Master Magazine List © Copyright 2003 by Coalition Web, Inc.
