Digital Tome and Blackstar Ink Deal for European Distribution

Houston based Digital Tome signs deal with Blackstar Interactive a German based publisher. Blackstar will distribute Digital Tome's first Episodic Computer Game Novel™ Siege of Avalon in Western Europe. The first of the six chapters is currently being released in Germany. In the near future, additional European countries will begin distributing the first Chapter and subsequently the remaining Chapters.

Siege of Avalon is based on Digital Tome's Episodic Computer Game Novel™ where the game is dived into Chapters; with the first one being Free. Siege of Avalon is divided into six Chapters each with about 10-20 hours of game play. Taken as whole, Siege of Avalon turns into an epic novel, which can be compared to a fantasy book. Blackstar will publish the first episode for free on the Internet; and on the cover-CDs of Germany's best-selling computer gaming magazines. The initial response has been so great that Blackstar has had to add six mirror sites to handle the first wave of downloads for the first Chapter . Mathias Balzer, Label & Sales Manager of Blackstar, commented: "The phenomenon of downloading the first chapter for free, will provide a unique opportunity for fans of traditional role playing games like Baldur's Gate. I'm thrilled with the quality of Siege of Avalon - and I'm sure that the players will be too. We are convinced that after having played the first episode players will go on to play the remainder of the game."
