First CD-Rom Title Set For Holiday Debut

LIL' HOWIE SETS OUT ON HIS NEXT GREAT ADVENTURE

7TH LEVEL TO RELEASE THE GREAT MATH ADVENTURE STARRING HOWIE MANDEL

Dallas, TX (May 17, 1996) -- Multimedia developer 7th Level, Inc. (NASDAQ:
SEVL) today announced The Great Math Adventure starring Howie Mandel, the
next great adventure in the award-winning Lil' Howie's Fun House series.
This educational CD-ROM offers six to nine year olds a fun, fast-paced,
humorous way to learn numbers and math skills. Behind the fun is an
educationally sound, curriculum-based design created by award-winning
educators. Skills taught in The Great Math Adventure include counting,
sequencing, patterns, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division,
money, place value, time and fractions.

This entertaining CD-ROM features TV-quality animation drawn by the
award-winning animator Dan Kuenster, whose credits include the hit
children's movies An American Tail, The Land Before Time, All Dogs Go To
Heaven and Rock-A-Doodle. Acclaimed actors Howie Mandel the voice of Lil'
Howie and Maurice LaMarche, the voice of "the Brain", breathe life into
Lil' Howie and Stinky in The Great Math Adventure.

Together Lil' Howie and Stinky, along with their high-tech friend, Digibot,
encourage the child to learn through playing numerous fun games and
puzzles such as Blasteroids, The Ice Cream Maker, The Big Time,
Catch-a-Match, Soaker and the Fractionaire. For those who have questions,
SaraBear, Lil' Howie's big sister, is always waiting in the wings to give
hints and help.

"The thing that differentiates our educational titles is that kids want to
play them because they're fun," said 7th Level Chairman and CEO George
Grayson, "but at the same time, the kids are learning. Parents love the
idea that our titles hold their children's interest and that they're
learning core curriculum."

"Computer-based technology has enabled us to transcend the constraints of
the traditional educational experience," said Neil Goldberg, a noted
educator and archeologist-in-residence at the Dalton School in New York
City. "7th Level is an innovator in developing educational software that
realizes the inherent potential in these technologies and creates for the
student a dynamic, interactive learning environment."

As in the previous Fun House titles, kids can choose between the Adventure
or Free Play. On the adventure, they progress from skill to skill in a
curriculum-based order and are automatically leveled according to their
achievements. The prize for successful completion is a certificate of
accomplishment, which can be printed or used for wallpaper on the computer
screen. If kids choose Free Play, they may select which games to play and
then encounter the math skills in any order.

Parents and teachers receive a comprehensive evaluation of the child's
progress. The sophisticated system provides the parent or teacher with
three types of evaluation: a detailed report of specific math problems
presented, the activity and level played in addition to the score earned
and a profile of the skills mastered.

The Great Math Adventure will ship in the third quarter with an average
street price of $39.99. It is compatible with both Windows 3.1 and Windows
95.

Titles in the Lil' Howie's Fun House series have received numerous awards
from parenting organizations and publications. The Great Word Adventure,
which shipped in November 1995, was awarded the Seal of Approval Award
from The National Parenting Center, the Parent's Choice Award and a Rommie
award from CD-ROM Today. This title lets six to nine year olds explore the
world of words and improve their language skills through a variety of
games and activities.

TuneLand, a preschool festival of favorite children's songs, has received
more than 20 prestigious awards to date, including the Gold Award for Best
Early Childhood CD-ROM from The National Parenting Publication.

Friends of Lil' Howie can look forward to playing with him in future titles
including the Great Science, Reading and Geography Adventures. They can
also find him in Kids' World, a fun, educational site on the World Wide
