ASHLAND, OR - March 18, 2002 ---- Microcomputer Resources,
Inc. (MRI) today announced the release this year of Josh’s World,
a CD-ROM based children’s game for the PC. Josh’s World offers kids
an engaging 3D world of gaming to explore for Windows 98/ME/XP.
Josh’s World offers kids who like to discover through exploration
an open world mode where they can play all the games and activities
found in Josh’s World. There is also a complete game mode for children
who prefer play through gaming. A single player can play Josh’s
World on a PC or two players can play against each other on the
same PC.
As Josh’s World’s Executive Producer, Robin Murphy stated, ”I had
been a computer teacher in an elementary school and I knew what
piqued children’s interest. It definitely wasn’t the “drill and
practice” software that flooded the market at the time. The kind
of software that interested them were open ended games encouraging
them to become actors rather than reactors… We wanted to create
a magical 3D world for these little people where they could explore
different environments and at the same time offer options to those
children who preferred to play games.”
Josh’s World also includes a Print and Play feature. Print and
Play generates activities and games the kids can enjoy even when
they are away from the computer.
Josh’s World was designed with children from age 2 - 9 in mind.
Although, a formal rating is pending, Josh’s World is a non-violent
title.
Microcomputer Resources, Inc. is a privately held Oregon Corporation
based in Ashland, Oregon. The company mission is to produce and
publish quality titles and carry that excellence through the various
distribution channels to the parents who buy our games and the children
that play them.
