London: 30th October 2008
Introversion relies on the support of its friends, family and fans to spread the good word. In conjunction with the release of our brand-spanking new multiplayer demo for Multiwinia last Friday, we have set up a Demo Promotion competition. If you think you can help us to promote the new demo, and fancy winning a few very juicy prizes along the way, please read on!
One of the interesting things we’ve noted about Multiwinia is that if you get someone to play the demo of Multiwinia, they are likely to love it. We know this because 28% of people who played the new demo this past weekend, bought the game. In the world of demo conversion, that’s a pretty fantastic rate if we say so ourselves!
We want to encourage you to push the demo for us on your magazine, website, podcast or blog and in return we will reward you. We will provide you with a demo that is uniquely identifiable to your website, from here we will be able to track downloads and then sales that come from this particular demo.
The more sales made from your demo, the more prizes guaranteed for you and your colleagues. Encourage your communities, readers and fans to play the demo and you’re sure to win something along the way!

What is Multiwinia?
Multiwinia: Survival of the Flattest is Introversion’s fourth stand-alone PC title. With a choice of six action-packed multiplayer game modes, and 49 unique maps set in one of the most beautiful, retro-arcade inspired game environs ever created, Multiwinia promises to be the ultimate homage to the halcyon days of gaming. Challenge your opponent to a game of stick-man slaughter, and watch digital-war unfold, as your Multiwinian army struggles to complete a chosen task faster and better than your rival’s. It’s fast, it’s furious, and only the flattest will survive!
Multiwinia is available to buy from the Introversion store ( http://store.introversion.co.uk) for £10, $16.60 or €13.30. Multiwinia is also available from Steam and retail.
A Mac version of Multiwinia from Ambrosia Software is in progress and coming soon. For more information please contact their PR manager John Champlin jchamplin@ambrosiasw.com for more info.
