Arush Entertainment (formerly WEB Corp.) announced today that it has signed a multititle marketing agreement with San Francisco-based software delivery application service provider Gigex.com to provide its "Webisodic" games to casual fans on major Internet portals. Gigex will launch six Arush episodic titles across the Gigex syndicated network, beginning with the release of Monkey Brains. The first free episode of this puzzle adventure is now available for download at the Gigex Top 50 page. The agreement strengthens Arush's distribution system by placing its titles on such popular communities as Yahoo, Excite, and DemoPlanet, among others.

"We're excited to get out there through Gigex, in front of millions of potential consumers," said Jim Perkins, president of Arush. "Our Webisodic distribution method will attract a broader audience by providing such a low-cost, low-risk way for fans to jump in and enjoy action-packed games within minutes."

Arush's episodic distribution method allows consumers to download the first episode of a game for free, play it, and then purchase subsequent installments online for about $5 each. For more information about Monkey Brains or Arush's other games, take a look at the previous articles linked below.
