Hang2000 Released!

Merrimack, New Hampshire, May 10, 1998: Ken Winograd and
Space-Time Associates announced today the relase of a new,
fun Macintosh shareware game called Hang2000.  Hang2000 is 
a new take on the classic hangman word guessing game we
all played when we were kids.  It features colorful,
non-violent graphics, digitized sounds, synthesized speech,
dozens of built-in word categories, thousands of words,
unlimited lists of your own words, and much more.

Hang2000 is "secretly educational". It's played for fun,
but you can't help learning. Included in Hang2000 is a
new "knowledge area". This area will include
information associated with the guessed word or phrase.
If the word chosen is from the States or Countries
category, for example, the knowledge area will show the
capital of the State or Country. If the category is Authors
or Composers, the knowledge area will show facts about, or
famous works of, the author or composer.  Of course, you can
also make your own lists (unlimited in number) and include
your own associated information.

There are dozens of categories, guaranteed to include
something for everyone.  From Monsters and Dinosaurs to
Star Trek and Television Shows, from Animals and Birds
to Colors and Cities, from Fruits and Vegetables to
Presidents and Vice-Presidents, From Rock and Roll to
Opera and Musical Instruments. And literally dozens more!

Hang2000 requires a Macintosh that supports 256 colors
or more.

Hang2000 is available now.  For more information, or to
download the program, please visit the Hang2000 web page at:
