WILMINGTON, Delaware, October 20 - - Current Play-for-Fun Casino Applications
to be Followed by Play-for-Real Services
Zone4Play, Inc. (OTCBB: ZFPI), a leading developer and provider of
multi-platform interactive game applications and solutions, announced today
the launch of play-for-fun casino applications on mobile services offered by
Sony-Ericsson, O2 and Orange IL. They will be available on over 40
cutting-edge mobile devices produced by Nokia, Motorola, Siemens,
Sony-Ericsson and Sharp.
The applications, which feature Zone4Play's award winning graphics,
sounds and game logic, are off-line downloadable games, developed in J2ME
technology, as well as on-line WAP versions.
In the first implementation of Zone4Play's mobile application on a
handset manufacturer's distribution channel, users of Sony-Ericsson handhelds
in the UK access the games through the Sony Fun Web-site. The Java
applications are available using Orange IL. The WAP applications are
available for O2 customers in the UK.
Additionally, Zone4Play soon expects to launch a fully networked solution
enabling mobile play-for-real services such as fixed-odds games, skill games
and multi-player games. The online J2ME applications are all "Network Aware",
enabling Zone4Play to offer the end-user a true gaming experience. These
applications offer the end-user head-2-head games, leader boards and
tournaments which encourage a sense of community, while providing operators
with full tracking and provisioning capabilities. Most important, they will
generate increased air time revenue.
Over the past years, Zone4Play's games also have been released for
distribution through selected distributors such as AirG and Power- By-Hand
and are available using mobile services offered by Hutchison HK, Mobistar BE,
Telecom NZ, Smart, Dialog, India Times, and AT&T US among others
"The broad success of games we have developed strengthens our confidence
in Zone4Play's cross platform development," said Gil Arbel, Zone4Play's VP
Business Development. "Once developed, our games use our platform adaptation
libraries so they can be rapidly adapted to any distribution channel
available, may it be Java, WAP over Mobile, and driverse middleware on iTV."
