SAN JOSE, CA - August 7, 1992 - Bats flew at you from the dark crevasses of
the cave, knocking the flashlight out of your hand. You groped for the
light in the cave's utter blackness. When you finally found it and flicked
it on, your twin brother Alex had vanished and was eventually presumed
dead. Now, even years later, you still feel his presence. This
overwhelming feeling that he is alive leads you to your Uncle Boris'
horror filled waxworks, a place that fills you with dread, yet was once
like a second home to Alex.

WaxWorks is Accolade's new true horror role-playing game due to ship this
October for IBM PC computers, and in November for Amiga computers.
WaxWorks is being developed by Horrorsoft, creators of Accolade's popular
horror based role-playing games Elvira and Elvira II. This bone-chilling
foray into five very detailed horror filled worlds will provide the player
with over 100 hours of challenging game play. 

"Uncle Boris has just died and left you his Dodge and his prized
possession, the WaxWorks. It took him years to create his collection of
evil looking wax figures. This is not a normal wax museum full of icons of
royalty, pop stars, and current celebrities. Uncle Boris chose to mold
dark treacherous brings from his imagination, as well as duplicate
criminals, witches, and monsters from film and history. Your first
temptation is to destroy the waxworks and its dreadful occupants. Yet
something beckons you to the old Victorian house that serves as the host
to the collection. You are drawn into the fearsome scenes depicted in wax.
You find yourself searching for your missing brother throughout the
labyrinth waxworks, in ancient Egypt, 19th century England, in a dark,
musty mineshaft and in a creepy, haunted cemetery.

Can you escape from the clutches of the waxworks and rescue your brother?
You'll travel through five different worlds, battle loathsome undead
creatures and monsters, using your wits, weapons, artifacts and even
household items. Use a crystal orb Uncle Boris left you to invoke powerful
incantations that give you magical powers.

WaxWorks is completely icon driven with a fast and intuitive "point and
click" interface. The first person perspective produces some very terror
filled moments, as you quickly have to decide to escape or fight to the
bitter end.

WaxWorks will be available at local software retailers or can be purchased
direct fro calling 1-800-245-7744.
