DreamQuest Software Releases First Cross-Platform Wireless Card Games for Palm OS and Pocket PC Handhelds

DreamQuest Software today announces its Championship card games, popular on Windows PCs and the Internet, are now available as a three-game bundle for Palm OS and Pocket PC handhelds. Championship Hearts, Championship Spades and Championship Euchre each provide PDA users with playful artwork and challenging card game action. Since the company’s games are the first truly cross-platform wireless games in the industry, players are able to enjoy a fun and challenging game anytime, anywhere, and on any device. Players can challenge the computer on a PC, PDA, or cell phone, and engage their friends over a local or wireless network, or compete and chat in DreamQuest Software’s free Internet lobby.

We have been thrilled with the reception our games have been receiving as we have been introducing them to handheld device users, said Christopher Williamson, DreamQuest Software’s president and CEO. It is exciting to deliver on the promise of the latest wireless technologies. PDA gamers can now dump that stale Solitaire game they’ve been playing on their PDAs and enjoy lively competition from their friends or our intensely competitive computerized players.

Each of DreamQuest Software’s games allow players to choose from five difficulty levels, dozens of variations, and eight customizable players to sharpen their skills. The Championship card games are highly regarded for the strength of their design, the challenge of their game-play, and the enjoyment customers get from being able to play the games on a multitude of platforms.

The Championship card games for handhelds retain the features of the Windows versions, which are also available in a three-game bundle. Beginners will enjoy hint, undo, replay, and other practice features along with the introductory tutorials. Expert players will appreciate all the statistics and be amazed at how the eight different opponents will adapt and use advanced strategies. Each game includes over 200 polished deck and table combinations along with hundreds of sounds. Custom skins allow players to share favorite themes. Customers can choose from three different versions of each game, depending on the level of features they would like. A 100% Free version offering an entry-level game, a Classic version featuring full offline and online support, and a Pro version with features designed specifically for hardcore players, such as statistics and customization.
