CryptoLogic secures exclusive licence for "Jewel Quest"

Jewel Quest - an award-winning and hugely popular puzzle-match game by iWin, Inc. - is the third and latest in CryptoLogic's casual games series, which includes slot adaptations of wildly popular online games such as Bejeweled and Cubis. Players can join the fast-paced treasure hunt on CryptoLogic-powered Internet casinos as of June 2007.

"CryptoLogic continues to pioneer play-for-real casino versions of wildly popular Internet games such as Bejeweled and Cubis - and we're confident that we have a new 'jewel' in our crown," said Javaid Aziz, CryptoLogic's President and CEO.

"Jewel Quest's exciting bonus rounds, ever-changing layers and spectacular visuals are certain to engage players everywhere. Based on the popularity of CryptoLogic's casual game series, it's clear we've enhanced entertainment for players - and enhanced business for our customers. The addition of Jewel Quest to our award-winning casino line up is further proof that CryptoLogic is leading the way with some of the Internet's most exciting and innovative entertainment concepts."

Listed as one of the top three grossing online casual games, Jewel Quest is widely played on major portals such as MSN.com, Yahoo! and AOL. It has been downloaded more than 40 million times since its debut in 2004. Players can explore the ancient Mayan civilization and join a hunt for hidden treasures, jeweled skulls, gold coins, masks, statues and diamonds.

When they match consecutive artifacts, the tiles underneath them turn to gold. Once all of the tiles have been transformed, players can unlock a bonus prize and move onto the next of five levels of play. With wagers starting at Pounds Sterling 1, players can win up to 2,000 times their bet.

"With another exciting product in our steady stream of casino innovations, CryptoLogic continues to break new ground in the Internet casino market - increasing player loyalty and delivering success for our licensees," added A.J. Slivinski, WagerLogic's Managing Director.
