Press Release Summary: Known for its wry illustrations, intelligent game design, and
fun game play, Gamewright continues to capture the hearts of parents and children
looking for a positive way to spend leisure time.

Press Release Body: Newton, MA- GAMEWRIGHT, a company devoted to putting a smile on
kids' faces while slyly teaching them a thing or two, has won 13 lucky awards just
months after introducing its 10 new games for 2008! Awards have come from the
Oppenheim Toy Portfolio, Parent's Choice Foundation, Mensa, iParenting Media Awards,
Major Fun and The National Parent Center. "It's great to be recognized for our
efforts to make fun, unique games that people like playing again and again," says
Jason Schneider, marketing director for Gamewright. "Since the company started 14
years ago, we've released over 100 games and won over 200 awards. We love what we do
and winning awards is truly the icing on the cake!"
One of the top award-winners is a bit of a departure for Gamewright. Known for its
card games, the company expanded this year to add an indoor/outdoor game called
Boochie. This twist on Bocce has already received five of the 13 awards and has
been featured on The Today Show. Boochie is a hit!
