Frogster giving away Goodies worth 500,000 EurosBerlin, February 13th 2009: According to tradition lovers make gifts on Valentine's day. Following that tradition, Frogster presents all loyal Runes of Magic players with Diamonds and items worth 500,000 Euros. Players will receive 50 Diamonds on every server they have at least one level 10 character. This special currency can be spent on all the items available in the game's own Item Shop. To make this more attractive Frogster lowered the prices of several top-selling items for the weekend, saving their players up to 66% per item.
For the duration of this special offer, a permanent horse is available for 150 Diamonds instead of the usual 299 Diamonds. More extremely popular items like the Skill-Reset Stones and the Group-Experience Potion are also on the list. To add some icing on the cake, every character receives an item that will reset the negative effects the avatars have to suffer when they are defeated in battle.
Players, whose characters have not yet reached level 10 will have enough time to do so. All accounts meeting the requirement before Saturday, February 14th 2009 at 2pm (GMT) / 15:00 (CET) will receive this gift. Please find further information during the afternoon on www.runesofmagic.com.
Runes of Magic started the open beta with an English and a German version in the middle of December 2008. All interested players can now download the online-role playing game and enter into the fantasy world after creating an account for free on www.runesofmagic.com.
