SAN JOSE, Calif. & SEATTLE--May 6, 2003--Wireless entertainment publisher, PlayPhone, Inc., and GameHouse -- the industry leader in creating mass-market games -- announced today a partnership to offer the mobile phone versions of mega-hits Collapse! and Collapse!

"GameHouse's Collapse! games are perfect for wireless phones," said Ron Czerny, CEO for PlayPhone, Inc. "They are simple, addictive and can be played for a single round, or for hours on end, reflecting the way people actually use their cell phones. We're confident that Collapse! will be one of those games that people will keep playing long after they have bought the game."
