Stockholm, Sweden, February 28, 2006 - The Swedish software company Mobile Interaction has launched MIS Arena - an online gaming site where you can play versus the mobile versions of Mobile Interaction's multiplayer games.

At MISArena.com you can play the multiplayer games of Mobile Interaction as Java applets. Currently released are Backgammon, Blockster, No Refuge and No Refuge Universe. The games are given multiplayer support using a connected gaming solution developed by Terraplay Systems. Included in Terraplay's Global Gaming Network are among other services in Italy, the Netherlands and the UK which allows users from the different operators to compete against each other.

"With MISArena.com we can faster reach a critical mass of users, that is important when launching a multiplayer game", says Peter Lindström, CEO of Mobile Interaction. "MISArena.com is a great way to promote our games and let users try the games for free. We believe that when people play our games from a PC, they will also want to have them on their phones, letting them play whenever and wherever they want."

"We believe that offering the games for free will help create a large vibrant gaming community. We expect users to buy the mobile versions of the games to keep playing while on the move, which in turn will increase the revenues for our clients", says Sven Hålling, CEO of Terraplay Systems.
