IT’S NO MYSTERY!
NANCY DREW PC GAMES #1 PC ADVENTURE SERIES IN U.S.

HER INTERACTIVE ANNOUNCES TWO NEW OFFERINGS FOR 2006

BELLEVUE, WA, April 25, 2006 – America’s number one super sleuth, Nancy Drew, is back in two new PC game adventures this year as Her Interactive today announced Nancy Drew: Danger by Design and Nancy Drew: The Creature of Kapu Cave.  A pioneer of the genre, Her Interactive has sold more than 2.5 million Nancy Drew games to date, making it the number one PC adventure game series in total units sold in the U.S., and the quietest success story in the interactive entertainment sector.

Both titles will be on display during the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), May 10-12, in Kentia Hall #7026 at the Los Angeles Convention Center.

“43 percent of all game players are women* which leaves a sizeable portion of the market unrecognized by today’s product offerings,” said Megan Gaiser, president and CEO of Her Interactive.  “With our Nancy Drew PC games, we have continually increased the production values to the point where the end result is an intellectually challenging, graphically charged and financially accomplished interactive series.  We anticipate that success to continue with our two newest offerings.”

Available in July, Nancy Drew: Danger by Design finds Nancy in Paris where she was sent by a nervous investor to check on Minette, a leading fashion designer whose strange, unexplained behavior may delay her Spring Collection and potentially derail the fashion house.

 In October, Nancy Drew: The Creature of Kapu Cave has the teen detective winging over to Hawaii as a research assistant only to find that her mentor, Dr. Quigley Kim is missing.  Amidst the volcanoes and caves of the lush Hawaiian landscape, Nancy goes head-to-head with the legend of Kāne ‘Ōkala as she unravels the multiple mysteries behind the missing Dr. Kim.

Rated “E” for Everyone, both titles will be available for purchase nationwide, as well as from the Her Interactive web site for a suggested retail price of $19.99.  More information about Her Interactive and the Company’s entire line of exciting Nancy Drew games can be found online at www.herinteractive.com.
