SUMEA ADDS SIX NEW TITLES TO ITS BREW™-BASED WIRELESS GAME PORTFOLIO

HELSINKI, FINLAND (June 03, 2004) — Sumea Interactive, Inc., an award-winning publisher and developer of high-quality, downloadable mobile games, today announced the addition of six new games developed for QUALCOMM’s BREW solution. All titles are expected to be available for distribution by Summer 2004.

Sumea’s Summer 2004 BREW-based portfolio will consist of the following games:

Yoyo Fighter — Players must find their way around 18 action-packed levels to save helpless friend Jaco who has been captured by the Golem Boss. The only weapon to use is a yoyo.

Mafia Wars — A story-driven action game that takes place in 1920s New York. Mafia Wars combines exciting strategic elements that force players to think twice about whether to rush straight into the enemy field or choose an alternative path of action.

Extreme Air Snowboarding — An action-packed winter sports game with smooth 3D graphics and multiple game modes.

Pitfall: The Lost Expedition — This game series is a proven franchise by Activision, where players control fearless adventurer Harry as he explores the jungle, a glacier and caves.

Racing Fever 2 — This game features multiple tracks with different weather conditions. The player commences racing when the sun is setting, continues through the rainy night and ends at dawn.

Jumbo Rumble — This is a multiplayer game where up to 3 players compete against each other, either in melee or tag fight mode. The game is played on a single device, where each player controls the elephant with only one key.

“We plan to continue to extend our line-up of mobile games based on the BREW solution so that we can reach millions of new players worldwide,” said Ilkka Paananen, CEO of Sumea. “We are also constantly thinking about how to make the most of the BREW solution’s distinctive features to create a unique mobile gaming experience.”
