Wandango, Balkia- A crowd of civilians took to their streets this week to celebrate their boredom being forever put to rest. Representatives of the U.S. based Endless Games were well received as they bestowed multiple copies of their entire fun-filled catalog of family entertainment upon the citizens of the town. “I got really bored of building sand castles,” said one newly excited child. “Now I can show off to my family how much I’ve learned in school”. One love- struck man exclaimed “I plan on playing The Newlywed Game with my wife... once we are married next week.” His bride-to-be also gushed about playing Linq . “I want to see if there is a real connection between us,” she said. “Thank goodness for Endless Games! They saved our village, and my marriage!” The town’s mayor celebrated Endless Games’ arrival with a delicious banquet, an exotic dance show and a very cool elephant ride through the village streets.

Since sunday afternoon, thearea in and around the Endless Games "funhouse" has been enveloped in a cheery blendof mayhem and laughter. One anonymousbystander caught in the crossfire had this tosay, "The hi lar i ty of th is s i tuat ion isunbelievable! I came here, expecting a gameof charades, but Riot Act™ has turned the

game on i t 's head." The Riot Act ™

phenomenon, also know as "The Act-Up, Act-Out, Action Game" enhances the classic gameof charades, taking i t to a new level ofextreme fun!

Players must act out what is described onthe "Act" card, in whatever manner the "Riot"deck tells them. The "Riot" cards range from asimple adverb, to combining your action withsome bizarre task not seen everyday. For

example, you might be asked to "Mi lk acow..." FORGETFULLY. Or, you may have to"Change a baby's diaper..." WHILE WALKINGON THE MOON.

At press time, the riotous fun brought on byplaying Riot Act™ has shown no signs ofslowing down. In fact, the game seems to bebuilding momentum. We'll be sure to keep aclose eye on the situation... ROMANTICALLY...WHILE BEING CHASED BY KILLER BEES!

I t seems this unusual businessstrategy is working. "We are very pleasedwith our first $10 bil l ion quarter," saidKevin. "Consumer and corporate demandfor games cont inued to exceed ourexpectations."

Asked what he sees for the future, Mr.McNulty repl ied, “Endless Games hasjust released a new second edition ofThe Price is Right™, and in the ShowcaseShowdown of l ife, that’s going to makeeverybody a big winner.”

Knoxvi l le, TN: In an unprecedentedweek of politics, Kevin, Mike and Brian ofEndless Games leapt ahead in thePresidential race. “We just decided thiscountry wasn’t having enough fun” saidMike. “What this country needs is a gooddose of family entertainment, and thatmeans SUMO!” Soon after EndlessGames decided to run on the Sumoplatform they had 95% of potential votersin their camp. Mike commented: “The

people of America don’t want to hearabout taxes or healthcare, all they want isfun!”

In response, President George W. Bushindicated Thursday that he intends to putaside his efforts on the educat ionprogram, tax policies, and the war in Iraqin order to make Sumo wrestling his toppriority. "There's no question, if I wish tobe re-elected I must knock my oppositionout of the election 'ring'," the president

was quoted as saying.In a bizarre "punch-

counter-punch" two-step,Senator John Kerry followedsuit, all but abandoning hisDemocratic platform. After arecent New Hampshire rally,the Democratic front-runners h o u t e d , " P o l i t i c sShmolitics... this thing will bewon or lost in the Sumoring!" No word yet onIndependent candidate AlSharpton's reaction, thoughmost insiders expect him tothrow his hat into the "ring"as wel l .

PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 20) Lie back and listen. You’ll get a strong feeling of what is appropriate to do. Now, quit lying around. We’d like to play another round of Linq™ sleepyhead.

ARIES (Mar 21-April 19) Tell it l ike it is. You might want to rethink what has happened with a special friendship. Play a game of Linq™ to find your connection.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Stay on top of work, even if you find it to be a bit of a drag. When you are done, you can open a game of Linq™ with your friends. Won’t that be worth it?

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You might want to make calls and do research. Making a decision could be tough without the help of an expert. Like deciding who is your Linq™. Make an educated guess.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Be will ing to understand more of what is going on behind the scenes. For example, If you think I have the same word as you and am your Linq™, go ahead and pick me, I won’t bug.

LEO (July 23-Aug 22) Others come toward you. Someone shares important information; you might want to digest it and mull it over. Take the hint, you’ve found the Linq™.

VIRGO (Aug 23-Sept 22) Unexpected developments occur later on that you might want to act on. What at first was unclear, will develop like a picture in your mind.

LIBRA (Sept 23-Oct 22) Your playfulness emerges with those you care about. Frolic away my Libra friend! If you’re looking for the rest of us, we’ll be out back playing Linq™ by the barbeque.

SCORPIO (Oct 23-Nov 21) Sometimes you might wonder what needs to happen within a key relationship. Wonder all you want, but if you watch closely, the answers will reveal themselves.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21) Your way of handling matters proves to be very assertive and charges the thinking process. But beware. In the game of Linq™, bluffing is critical, and things are not always as they seem.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19) A partner or family member might push to have what he or she wants. In other words, don’t let them see your cards.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18) Understand what someone else wants. You won’t score points unless both YOU and YOUR Linq™ guess each other as Linq™s.

New York: After five days of gruelingcompeti t ion, a del i r ious Kevin McNultyfinally emerged as this year's Game ShowPentathlon champion. This year's contestfeatured five of the country's most belovedTV Game Show classics (all of which areavai lable for home play f rom EndlessGames).

In round one, the three finalists (Kevin,f lanked by Endless Games cohorts MikeGasser and Brian Turtle) squared-off in a fewrounds of Password ™, the classic wordassociat ion game. In th is format, thepentathlon spokesmodel "Game ShowGretchen" gave each contestant a one-wordclue from which they had to figure out thePassword™. Brian took an early lead, but notfor long, as the event then turned over toBeat the Clock™ where Michael's size andstrength became a major asset. Beat theClock™, a TV classic from the 50's, 60's,70's, and 80's put our three players to thetest as they completed a series of bizarrestunts before time ran out. Having practicedat home with his children all week, Mikeclinched an easy victory as his accuracy,dexterity, and his ability to balance thingson his head for long per iods of t imeprevailed.

Day two of our competition was kickedoff with this classic phrase: "Behind thesenumbers is a puzzle, can you solve it?"Kevin squealed with delight as he knew hewas about to play his personal favoritegame: Concentrat ion ™. Having watchedevery episode of Concentration™ that everaired, Kevin was a master at solving themind-tickling Concentration™ rebus puzzlesas he vaulted himself back into the thick ofthe competition.

McNulty continued this inspired play overthe course of the next two days as he naileda number of popular survey questions fromFamily Feud ™, and cleaned up playing"High/Low" on Card Sharks™. By the finalday of competition, he had a commandinglead, and managed to int imidate hiscompeti t ion with his obnoxious yel lowsweatshirt.

With thousands of fans watching on site,and mill ions more around the globe, day fiveof the pentathlon consisted of a medley ofall f ive of the previous days' classic games,and concluded with the "Golden Boy"sprinting out a strong finish and title of TVGame Show Champion! His prize was to bedetermined later in the day.

Lima, Peru: Staggered by the recent news ofcheating and lying being okay (in games), theseLima residents l iterally had to sit down. "At firstthey were shocked, but they then embraced theidea" said Endless Games spokesman Brian Turtle."I mean, how can you play Cheater™ withoutcheat ing? Liar's Dice ™ without ly ing? For

traditionalists, and those for whom these gamesseem too radical, we do offer a host of othergames where lying and cheating aren't allowed,namely Spill and Spell™ and Kismet™." The peopleof Peru can finally have their cake and eat it too.

In a related story, the same can't be said forBrian and fellow Endless Gamesman, Mike Gasser.

Both men were arrested yesterday on charges oflying and cheating their way to victory in the Spilland Spell™ and Kismet™ portions of the annualBoard Game, Sausage, and Physics Fest ival .Having recently gained the strength to stand upagain, several Lima festival-goers fell weak in theknees with yet another dose of shocking news.

Salem, MA: Hundreds of people have been scared “nearly to death”, playing Goth™ according todoctors. “I was just trying to fi l l my graveyard plot with tombstones by answering questions inmorbid trivia categories” said one teary-eyed victim. “The questions just kept getting more intenseand, I guess, I just couldn’t handle it.”

Asked to comment, Brian Turtle of Endless Games said, “We’ve done some research, and it seemslike the factory that Goth™ was produced in was haunted. This game is not for the faint of heart.”

Witnesses were quoted as saying “We heard some of the most appalling things you can imagine.There were morbid questions about movies, music, l iterature, and even real l ife!” Another witnesslooking spooked, said, “We played with the whole family and at one point my own mother said ‘I’mgonna bury you!’ She’s a sunday school teacher for goodness sake!”

Mike “Sure Shot” Gasser has a beef with Clara Bel le who refuses to return to her corral .After the revolt, the cows were in control of the farm.

Relegated to sleeping in the barn and eating hay, Mr.Gasser devised a scheme and negotiated a face-off toregain control. To level the playing field, they decided onthree easy to play and ultra-fun children’s games fromEndless Games. Clarabel proved to be a quick and

creative thinker as she dominated in the matching gameTwo out of Three™. She recognized the shapes, faces andcolors that matched her cards, before Mr. Gasser couldget his finger out of his holster. Mr. Gasser evened it upwith a decisive victory in Pig Out!™, a corny kids game,and was a pig in mud until being outdone in the final leg

of the competition. Clarabel having the inside advantage,was able to count and match the cards of Corral theCow™, dominating Mr. Gasser in the fast paced memorygame. Having lost the farm fair and square, Mr. Gasserhas resorted to an old-fashioned show of force to winback his land. At last report, the standoff continues…

SHOWSTOPPER!- ENDLESS GAMES TREATED SEVERAL CHEERING FESTIVAL-GOERS TO AFOLK MUSIC PERFORMANCE OF THEIR MUCH CELEBRATED CLASSIC ‘ENDLESS ANTHEM’.

There have been bands withmore tortured recording historiesthan the NY/NJ group known asEndless Games, but not many.Now, 15 years after their initialrelease "Game'n in the Wind",this folk trio is finally gettingrespect.

Gone are the coffee houseshows catering to sparse roomsof 5 or 6 uninterested "listeners"."Just the other day we played toa crowd of 22!" banjoist KevinMcNulty gushed, adding, "I'mdrunk on popularity!" With hitslike "Pop Smarts™, Pop Smarts™,Pop Smarts™", "Play that Encore™

One More Time", and the classic" E n d l e s s A n t h e m " , E n d l e s sGames has left a legacy ofgenerally ignored folk rock.Obscure as they are, the trioremain optimistic about theirlatest release "The Song RemainsEndless", a concept albumfeaturing just one song. The songis 146 minutes in duration(featuring a remarkable 26 minutefiddle solo) and can be heard inits entirety at the Endless Gamesshowroom, Room 509.

Thousands gathered this weekend to celebrate Pop Smarts™

and Encore™. The Board Game Day Festival was great fun for allwith performances from famous musical groups “Endless Games”,“The Yellow Intestine Band”, “Tommy’s Magic Banjo”, and thecrowd favorite “Who’s Got The Dice?”

The motto of the festival: “Turn on, tune in & have fun!” provedto hold true, with festival-goers old and, well, less old enjoying thegreat weather and moderately-volumed music.
