Gala-Net Announces the Release of Tales Runner in North America
SUNNYVALE, Calif. (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) March 11, 2008 --
Gala-Net has announced that it has reached an agreement with the Korean
publisher, NOWCOM, to license Tales Runner in North America through
Gala-Net’s game portal, www.gpotato.com.
Tales Runner, developed by Rhaon Entertainment, is a free-to-play online
racing game that offers various types of racing modes. Tales Runner,
already a huge hit in Korea, Japan, and Taiwan, offers gamers the
opportunity to enjoy running, tumbling, jumping and breaking barriers to
get through obstacles. This game challenges gamers’
racing skills while having to overcome obstacles including ski slopes,
alligators, giant boulders or even monsters. Points are given to players
for overcoming these disadvantages and for speed.
The setting from this racing game comes from popular fairy tales such as
The Frog Prince, Jack and the Bean Stalk, and the Japanese classic,
Momotaro. Tales Runner has several modes to offer such as a standard
racing mode, a relay race mode, or even a survival mode for up to 30
players. Every type of gamer will discover Tales Runner to be a fun and
interactive game. Jikhan Jung, CEO of Gala-Net, believes that Tales
Runner would appeal to all demographics, much like Gala-Net’s
already successful MMORPG game Flyff. “Gala-Net
wants to continue to provide gamers the highest quality services for
free, and trusts that Tales Runner would have as much success as Flyff,”
said Jung. “Gala-Net believes that Tales
Runner has plenty to offer our gamers, and knows that gamers will enjoy
their experience playing it.”
