CHICAGO | June 27, 2008 | TMRzoo.com — Today the premier online collectible war game, The Continuum, was launched by Seven Lights, LLC. This original flash-based game blends the best elements of strategy gaming, collectible gaming, RPGs and digital goods into a distinctive game universe, where players’ actions affect a gripping narrative.
The Continuum’s gameplay is built around the game’s ever-expanding universe of dynamic digital characters from distinct game realities that do battle with each other in head-to-head online match-ups. Players of the game develop armies through battles, equipment discovery, and upgrades.
Their characters and abilities are built through victory, trade, and purchase. Players who sign up between June 25th and July 9th, 2008 will get the exciting opportunity to purchase special Launch Character Packs giving them the advantage of additional characters to build their armies and
powers.
The characters of The Continuum each have their own unique attributes and abilities, and range in rarity from common to rare to one-of-a-kind. The characters are constantly developing through The Continuum’s RPG game elements, as the game allows players to use experience points for
modifications, such as increasing and adding new characteristics and abilities. All customized in-game
characters, not just the heroes, develop in an infinite number of ways to continually change the combat landscape and keep the game exciting and fresh every time it’s played. Plus, unlike many other RPGs, players’ behavior and participation in narrative events help determine the course
of the official story as expansions are introduced and comics are released.
The game is free to play, and newcomers will be given a number of characters to keep. The Continuum, which can be played for ten minutes or for ten hours, features a level playing field, where players can have an even match regardless of how much they have invested in the game either
financially and/or time spent. Players will also be able to buy additional character packs or character subscriptions to add to their collection.
More than 25,000 gamers have pre-registered to play the beta version of The Continuum. This game is playable on all the major web browsers and is not platform dependent. The browser-based format allows Seven Lights to constantly stage events and add new content (characters, maps, abilities,
etc.) in real-time.
