Flyff Introduces the Forsaken Tower and its Secret Rooms

Flyff, the first title from Gala-Net Inc., will soon release one of its most anticipated updates later this Fall for Version 12 (V.12) - the Forsaken Tower and its Secret Rooms.

The Forsaken Tower is a new dungeon for mid to high level players who are brave enough to set foot inside. The Forsaken Tower is located at the south of Flaris and is unlike any other dungeons in Madrigal. The tower hosts 5 floors, each of which has unique monsters inspired from different mythologies from around the world. In addition, upon the top of the Forsaken Tower are two rooms which give guilds the chance to obtain powers never seen before. In order to access the Secret Rooms and reap the benefits of the power it contains, guilds must compete to win access. The guilds will complete weekly against a challenging new enemy who sits upon the top of the tower. Winning guilds from both of the secret rooms will be granted the power to set tax rates in the major cities of the game. Controlling guilds will receive their share of the taxes earned on a daily basis.

“The competition for the Secret Rooms in V.12 will be intense,” said Senior Producer Keehwan Her. “Flyff is a very closely knitted community, and this new dungeon will not only bring new territories for players to explore, but it will also challenge guilds from all around the world.”

World of Warcraft - Wrath of the Lich King - Fact Sheet

With the opening of the Dark Portal, and the renewed war to stop the Burning Crusade’s destruction of worlds, the heroes of Azeroth have given little thought to the frozen wastes of Northrend - and the terrible, ancient powers that wait there. 

Yet the brooding evils of the fallen Nerubian empire and their malevolent sovereign have not forgotten Azeroth…

The former death knight and now Lich King Arthas has set in motion events that could lead to the extinction of all life in Azeroth, as his undead armies and the necromantic power of the plague threaten to sweep across the land. 

Only the mightiest heroes can survive the frozen northlands with any hope of disrupting the plans of Arthas -- and perhaps even challenge the Lich King himself and end his reign of terror for all time.

Features:

• New character class: the necromantic Death Knight
• New continent: Northrend, the icy domain of the Lich King
• New level cap of 80, including mighty new powers and talents
• Epic siege warfare and destructible buildings
• New profession: Inscription

Black Mirror 2 - PC video game trailer

Back to the Scary Castle of Black Mirror we go. dtp entertainment and Cranberry Production are proud to release the GC 2008 trailer movie of Black Mirror 2. The English castle is once more setting of a thrilling Point & Click Adventure.

Twelve years after the events of Black Mirror: The coast village of Biddeford/Maine is gleaming in the colours of Indian Summer. Here works the main character of Black Mirror 2, Darren, as a temp in a photo studio. He, a withdrawn young lad in his 20ies, is studying physics. If photography hadn’t been his only passion, he would have left his poorly paid job and his sleazy boss Fuller ages ago.



One day, a stunning English girl named Angelina steps into the shop to have her picture taken. Darren is instantly captivated by her beauty – he has never felt like this. But suddenly, Fuller is bursting in. He insists on serving the pretty customer himself while Darren is sent out to town. When he comes back, it’s only by chance that he can fix an appointment with Angelina for a photo shooting.

Shortly after Angelina has left the shop, Darren notices a man following her secretly. Soon, something horrible is happening. In Darren’s opinion, Fuller has to do with it and he wants him to pay for it.

During the next weeks, the student is plagued by nightmares. He starts a journey leading him to Willow Creek in England. This is the village of Black Mirror Castle where the tragedy of part one took place.



Achim Heidelauf, Senior Producer at dtp entertainment promises: “The story is much more connected with the first game than one would expect.” Black Mirror 2 picks up the scary atmosphere of its award-winning predecessor.
