Main features:
- Epic turn-based fantasy gameplay. Up to seventeen people can play at once thanks to the simultaneous turn structure. For those who would rather play solo the computer opponents put up fierce competition for those 3 AM gaming sessions.
- All new graphics in the sequel. The interface has been overhauled and streamlined, the map looks like it could be found in the front of your favorite fantasy novel, and the battle scenes are now in three-dimensional glory.
- New map filters that help players instantly assess the world situation. Easily locate fortress locations, temples, or how far your dominion stretches. Additionally, the map is zoomable.
- A nice twist on mercenaries: mercs up for recruitment are available to all players and will only end up fighting for the cause of the highest bidder.
- While every fantasy strategy game has the concept of heroes in Dominions 2 heroes really need to depend on being heroic. The top ten commanders will enter into the Hall of Fame, where they will be bestowed various heroic abilities. The longer they can stay in the Hall of Fame, the more kudos are awarded.
- Taking the sword to your opponents is similar to a good wargame. Morale losses can lead to routs and assassinating the enemy commander is a nicely proven formula for success. Magic and the power of your would-be god also plays a huge part in battle and you can even commit battlefield summonings.
- A cornucopia of creatures, items, and spells. The item manual weighs in at 71 pages, while the spell book is a massive 88 pages long.
- The amount one can do in one turn is staggering. Just check out these phases in the turn: recruit, research, empowerment, forge, rituals, magic battles, search, prayers, blood hunt, luck, assassinations, friendly movement, movement, storm castle, enchantments, magic items, sneak, build, special orders, income, starvation, upkeep, dominion, site effects, heal, mercs, and scouting.
- More nations to play than the original Dominions! More units, more monsters, and more spells!
- Less micromanagment than the original and helpful pop-ups that describe the various gameplay mechanics makes Dominions 2 an easy game for new players to get involved with.
- Easy to grasp, gamers will enjoy creating new maps for the game with the included map editor.
- Playable on all the major operating systems: Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and Solaris.

Cold War follows the story of a freelance journalist who finds himself in the midst of an international conspiracy that aims to control the U.S.S.R. Twelve hours after arriving in Moscow for a routine story, he has been stripped of all possessions, beaten unconscious and thrown into the KGBs political prison.
Using only recovered weapons and improvised gadgets, he must now evade or overcome elite Soviet forces and defeat the conspiracy before he is sent to a Siberian prison camp or killed.
Cold War is an RTS game for Linux and Windows.
Razor Kane, an Independent Journalist and former CIA Agent, takes on the KGB in the former USSR at the height of the Cold War.
Razor Kane is a journalist with an edge, or three. Having been kicked out of the CIA for his extracurricular activities, Razor is now writing articles about his exploits for all the readers back home. Razor Kane is as much a newsman as Indiana Jones is an archeologist. Part investigative journalist, thrill seeker and adrenaline junky, Razor always ends up in the middle of the action, in whatever remote country he may find himself, which is usually one where the alcohol flows and exotic, friendly woman are plenty.
This time Razor penetrates the deepest depths of the Former USSR to hunt down a group of communist hardliners who are plotting to threaten world peace. Razor will fight and match his wits against the enemy in environments like Chernobyl, Mausoleum and Kremlin, some of the most well-known and symbolic places of the former Communist rule. This is the world behind the Iron Curtain, a world of a totalitarian Soviet Union at the height of the Cold War.
Razor has to draw upon all his skills and experience for this challenge. Stealth plays a leading role: Razor has to move quietly and deliberately; slip behind enemies unnoticed; duck for cover behind objects; and hide in the shadows. He can disable alarms, pick locks or confound security cameras. When in a tight spot, he is good with a gun, but usually outfoxing the enemy is the best way to succeed.
Venture Inside the Former USSR
Cold War achieves a first in gaming history, by transporting players inside a realistic depiction of some of the most well known places of the Former USSR, a place which has captured the imagination of the general public in books and films for generations, but has only been lightly covered in electronic games. This is not a highly stylized and fictional USSR, but the real thing. Who better to develop this environment, than a talented team of developers living in Eastern Europe.
Realistic Gameplay - Pierce the Iron Curtain
Outnumbered and on their turf, tactics and stealth are required for pulling off this mission. Just blasting away, Razor may win the battle but will definitely lose the war. Realistic play is required to pierce these almost impenetrable beacons of the Former USSR.
Master the Interactive Environment
Cold War provides a highly interactive environment, where clues to unraveling this conspiracy are found logically inside the game, not in disruptive pop-ups and pictures.
Use the highly interactive environment: If you cant slip past security cameras, disable them; pick a lock to access a safer route; enemy approaching through an elevator? - then shut it down.
Encounter Numerous Types of Enemies
Full of different types of enemies with unique AI, a large range of tactics and strategies are required: run away from a slow soldier; confuse a dog with pepper; or eliminate a soldier wearing night-vision goggles with a flash grenade. By observing the enemy and understanding their behavior, discover new strategies for outfoxing them.
Weapons & equipment
Full of equipment to allow a variety of problems to be solved using a number of methods: At night, use night vision goggles; for long distances, use binoculars; a heart beat sensor detects enemies behind walls; a uni-direction microphone can be used to overhead enemy plans.
Sound like a typical feature set of a typical game? - Well, Razor is anything but typical! And his unconventional approach is extremely frustrating for, well, the rather conventional enemy. He is able to cleverly use every day items to create superb tactical and lethal gadgets. For example, an alarm-clock and paint thinner, on their own, are rather harmless, but by combining the two, a dangerous trap can be created which will not only lure the enemy to the bomb, but blow them away in a fiery mess.
Weapons must be used sensibly though, because ammunition supplies are not infinite and the player is usually outnumbered. And of course, more overt use of weaponry will increase the response by the enemy - who will swarm and fire more, than if silent but deadly methods are used.
Technology & Graphics
Superb graphics masterfully depict the rich environment of the communist USSR during the Cold War, using N-Djinni proprietary game engine. Due to the unique mix of the technologies designed especially for this project, we intend to achieve a graphically stunning game even on average hardware configurations.
Main features:
- Stunning locales from mid-1980s U.S.S.R: Chernobyl, the Mausoleum and the KGBs notorious Ljubljanka prison
- Strong esponage/stealth style with realistic AI enemies and missions based on real world events
- In-game elements are combined to create weapons and traps
- Innovative gadgets including an X-Ray camera
Gameplay:
Players match wits and strength against the powerful Russian enemy using only recovered weapons and improvised gadgets to eliminate opponents.

Ballistics is the fastest racing game ever.

The year is 2090, and humankind has become a high tech society. Diseases are gone, and almost everyone lives a comfortable and secure life. The world is simply a stable place. But when times are calm and money is plentiful, people always start to search for entertainment to fill their everyday lives with. Extreme sports have developed and Ballistics is one of the biggest. You are one of the contenders. You are a Ballistics Pilot, ready to throw yourself headlong into the most awesome speed sensation in the world!

The Ballistics races evolved from the Formula One races. The Ballistics pilots are trained from their teens and, using electronic enhancers, their reflexes are much faster than any ordinary human. Wearing G-suits like fighter pilots, they set out to race in these insane speed fests in their hunt for fame and fortune.
Not only do you race through high tech scenarios, as a pro league pilot you get to travel the world and compete with other daredevils in the most spectacular tracks ever built. Rushing through settings such as the Belize jungle, the Grand Canyon, and the city center of future Houston, you are in for some serious action and challenges. The tracks are built using tunnels that allow a racing surface that is curved and twisted in any direction.

The Pilots who race in these tunnels are all using Speeders. Speeders are high tech hover bikes with a magnetic repel unit keeping them floating in the air when inside the track. To be able to keep the Speeders floating, a magnetic field has been generated close to the track walls. This magnetic field, called the MF by some, will keep the Speeder in the air, or if the pilot chooses to, it will keep the Speeder attached just a few millimeters from the wall.

Being a Speeder pilot has its pros and cons. The pros include fame and good old hard cash for your performance. The cons being high speed impacts with concrete walls. Each race pays a fortune, and you certainly deserve it for throwing yourself into this furious racing grind.

This product is due to be released on May 31, 2007.
