Mutable Realms and Themis Group Plan for Wish Beta

Mutable Realms and Themis Group Plan for Wish Beta

Durham, NC - July 8th, 2003 - Mutable Realms, an Alabama based
independent developer of massively multiplayer games, today announced
the signing of a contract with Themis Group, an international provider
of outsourcing and consulting solutions and services to the interactive
entertainment industry. Under the terms of the agreement, Themis Group
will provide critical and quantifiable beta phase services for Mutable
Realms' upcoming game Wish, aimed at ensuring that Wish emerges from the
closed beta phase ready to successfully scale up to open beta and
commercial launch.

"Closed beta is a critical phase in the successful development an online
game," said Marc Laukien, President of Mutable Realms. "With the Themis
Group's experience on our side, we're confident our testing process will
be both effective and successful."

Wish defines a new category of online game, the "Ultra Massive
Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game" (UMMORPG). Unlike existing MMORPGs
that confine players to a server with only a few hundred other players,
Wish's highly-scalable server cluster infrastructure allows the game to
support tens of thousands of simultaneous players in a single shared
world.

"A game as ambitious and innovative as Wish will demand a rigorous and
comprehensive beta test," said Alexander Macris, CEO of Themis Group.
"We look forward to meeting the challenges ahead."

Wish will begin a limited closed Beta in November, 2003, expanding to
10,000 users by early next year. The game is planned for release in Q4
2004. More information about Wish can be found at

"It's always a goal of mine to make certain that we as developers listen
to the players," said Dave Rickey, Lead Designer of Wish. "I'm now
confident we'll hear everything they'll have to say."
