PENTAGONIA: CHRISTMAS 99 FREE DRAW AND PRIZE GIVEAWAY!!!

We know Pentagonia is a great new board game! More and more people are finding this out. Pentagonia is now for sale in stores in three Canadian provinces and three US states.

We've had on-line purchasers from New York, California, Florida, Texas and places in between. And a St. Louis based Game Rep is now introducing our game to stores in the US midwest.

However, not being owned by Irwin, Sony, Disney or Time-Warner, we haven't been able to generate much mainstream media. What was true last year remains true this year...

Most people have never seen someone play a game of Pentagonia.

We want to change that.

Hence our Christmas 99 contest!

Prizes are even better than last year. We are still going to have weekly prize draws, and a board game draw on December 15, 1999, but now we be holding daily prize draws.

Prizes are as follows:

  1. Each day from November 10 to December 15, 1999, someone will win a pentagonia demonstration program sans a year 2000 distribution licence. For computers with a Windows 95 or Windows 98 based operating system, the demonstration program contains an illustrated help file and allows you to play Pentagonia with a friend on your pc.
    Market value of the prize is around $5.00 US.
  2. On Saturday, November 6, 13, 20, and 27, and December 4, and 11, one lucky person will win:
    1. a pentagonia demonstration program with a distribution licence for the year 2000. The program is substantially similar to the daily prize, requires a computer with a Windows 95 or Windows 98 based operating system, and allows the winner to copy and sell as many copies as they wish in the year 2000 for whatever price they wish to charge, and
    2. web site submission of the URL of the winner's choice to over 800 search engines and free link sites.
      Market value of the prize is around $25.00 CAD.
  3. On December 15th, the prize will be a Pentagonia board game.
    Market value of the prize is around $38.00 CAD, including shipping and handling.
