Selatra, a global distributor of mobile Java games, announced an exclusive deal to distribute 'Tropix, your Island Getaway', in both the North American and Canadian markets. The game will be distributed through Selatra's channels in the second quarter of 2007, following a deal with Airborne Entertainment.

The distribution agreement was announced at the Game Developers Conference, in San Francisco. Sean Cronin, CEO of Selatra, declared: "Easy to play and highly addictive, Tropix blends many classic game play ideas into one title. Tropix is undoubtedly a fantastic deal for our casual gamers - one download delivers four games with state of the art graphics, which are quick and easy to learn and can be played in short bites or in long sessions."

"We have relationships with every major wireless carrier in North America, so when we were looking for a global distributor of mobile entertainment content to help Tropix reach the widest possible audience, it had to be Selatra," said Airborne President Andy Nulman.

A big PC hit created by Robot Super Brain, Tropix is a combination of four different games, all set within a sunny island paradise. Players collect 'sand dollars' enabling them to travel to new islands, buy toys and food for their Tamagotchi-styled monkey and discover even more games to play. Puzzle fans can take on the challenge of 'Sandoku', the familiar Sudoku game, while shoot 'em up fans will head for Puffer Popper action. In Jungle Jump, players have to adventure through the Tropix rainforest, while looking after their pet monkey.

"Tropix has been developed to the highest standard by Creative North, a world class developer of games for the mobile phone," Sean Cronin continued. "Whether you're a fan of puzzles, adventures or word games, Tropix offers 'an island of fun' for everyone."
