DUNGEONEER GETS A NEW PUBLISHER
Citizen Games, Atlas Games and Thomas Denmark Announce Transfer of Hit Dungeon-Delving Card Game

July 10, 2003

Roseville, MN -- Dungeoneer, the hit card game published this spring by Citizen Games, sold out quickly and left fans and retailers clamoring for more.

Atlas Games, Citizen Games, and Dungeoneer creator Thomas Denmark are pleased to announce that they have finalized an agreement for Atlas Games to take over publication of Dungeoneer and its expansions and sequels. Atlas plans to release the 2nd edition of the original Dungeoneer set, The Tomb of the Lich Lord, in October. In November the eagerly awaited expansion-sequel, Vault of the Fiends, will follow.

Citizen Games President Scott Bagley had this to say, "We are committed to the success of Dungeoneer, but realized that Citizen Games is not yet in a position to make the financial investments required to make that happen in a timely manner. We worked closely with Tom Denmark to find another game company whose proven track record in the gaming industry and financial integrity would provide Dungeoneer with the greatest chance of achieving its potential."

"We're honored that Citizen Games and Thomas Denmark would turn to us, and we're very excited by this opportunity," said Atlas Games President John Nephew. "We've really enjoyed playing the Dungeoneer game, and we look forward to building on the success that Citizen Games has already proven. It's a great fit for our product line, complementing our perennial best-selling traditional card games, such as Once Upon A Time and Lunch Money."

"Citizen Games has always been supportive of the game," commented Thomas Denmark, Dungeoneer's creator. "I'm very happy with the decision to transfer the rights to Atlas Games. I'm working overtime to make the 2nd edition and expansion the best possible Dungeoneer!"
