Default ANN: Solar System Game 1.0 released

New Company Releases 3D Educational Astronomy Game

Westerville, OH (June 10, 2004) - Gilded Ring Software has released
version 1.0 of The Solar System Game, an interactive 3D trivia game for
Windows 98/NT/ME/2000/XP (TM). The Solar System Game guides the player
on a virtual tour of the solar system to answer challenging questions
about the Sun, the planets, and some of the larger moons.

The Solar System Game offers science museums and planetariums a low-cost
alternative to expensive custom simulations and software exhibits.
Visitors can begin playing immediately without a learning curve, making
the game ideal for places that have a high volume of "foot traffic".

Schools and libraries can use The Solar System Game to complement their
science and astronomy curriculum and literature. Students can participate
in an educational and fun activity in study halls, computer labs, and
after school "latch key" programs.

The Solar System Game offers very affordable G-rated entertainment for the
entire family at home as well. In addition to playing the game, home
users -- with the help of their favorite image editing program -- can
create screensavers and desktop wallpapers with The Solar System Game's
attractive graphics.

Since The Solar System Game employs real time 3D graphics, users will need
a fairly advanced computer to run it. Computers running Windows
98/NT/ME/2000/XP with a minimum of 128 MB of RAM (256 MB recommended) and
with 16 MB of video memory (32 MB recommended) are required. Gilded Ring
Software recommends that you first download and play the free trial
version (http://solarsystemgame.com/download.htm) to ensure that your
computer has adequate horsepower.

The Solar System Game costs $14.99 for a single seat license. Flexible
per-seat licensing is available for institutions with larger needs. For
more information, to download the free trial version, or to place an
order, visit the product website at http://solarsystemgame.com.
