 Gamers "Flip" Over New Atari Release
 "FlipOut!"(tm) for Jaguar 64 Hits Stores Nationwide
 
 
 SUNNYVALE, CA (August 28, 1995) -- This morning Atari 
 Corporation introduced the exciting title "FlipOut!", a 
 wacky and challenging puzzle game for the Jaguar 64 home 
 entertainment system.
 
 "FlipOut!" is a puzzle game with a unique twist. Players 
 tour the distant "Planet Cheese" and view Mother Earth 
 through the eyes of alien tourists. The game takes place at 
 The Great Tile Flipping Festival, the premiere sporting 
 event for the citizens of Planet Cheese.
 
 Players participate in The Great Tile Flipping Festival all 
 over the Universe, from the Zero Gravity Arena on Planet 
 Cheese to the presidential faces of Mount Rushmore. In some 
 of the worlds, players must "juggle" ten tiles by flipping 
 them into the designated places on a three-by-three grid, 
 where one must be in the air at all times. In Yellowstone, 
 aliens are flipped until they land on the color coordinated 
 geyser, and in the Sphorkle Diner, players must match food 
 with the correct color alien.
 
 Sound simple? Don't be fooled. "FlipOut!" has four 
 difficulty levels ranging from normal to insane with 
 obstacles to challenge even the most talented flippers. 
 Each area offers different challenges, including alien 
 interference, that intensify as levels progress. In the 
 final world, gamers meet King Fluffy, a wacky blue-blood 
 determined to confuse players by scrambling and destroying 
 the difficult sixteen-tile playing field.
 
 "'FlipOut!' adds yet another genre of game play to Jaguar 
 64," said Ted Hoff, Atari's President of North American 
 Operations. "It combines animated characters with three 
 dimensional multi-level game play to create a puzzle game 
 beyond players' wildest imaginations."
 
 "FlipOut!" is just one of Atari's new title launches for 
 the season. Recently, Atari released "Super Burnout" and 
 "White Men Can't Jump" bundled with Team Tap(tm), a 
 peripheral to link four players at once. Other titles to be 
 released this summer include: "Ultra Vortek", "Pitfall: the 
 Mayan Adventure", "Flashback" (published by US Gold), and 
 "Rayman" (published by UbiSoft).
 
 "FlipOut!" has a rating of K-A (appropriate for Kids to 
 Adults) and has a suggested retail price of $49.99.  It is 
 available in stores nationwide.
