Pnumia Entertainment announces the release of playable download Alpha Demo #001 along with more details on their flagship game title The Dragon Apprentice, an original story by Rob Davidson that puts you into the scales of Frigg, an orphaned dragon and apprentice wizard on a quest to rescue their family from the forces of darkness.

| Backstory Tidbits |

When the evil litch, the BONE KING™, and his Infernal Army make a surprise assault on the Village of Ember the Master Wizard, Alvis Jarl, banishes the undead battle-mage and his horde into a labyrinth of magical dungeons hidden deep within a mysterious sub-dimension known as the Netherealm. However, the BONE KING™ reveals this to be merely part of his plan to gain access to the Netherealm and perform a ritual that will give him complete control over the seven Cosmic Forces. To contain this threat Alvis takes you on as his apprentice, and charges you with clearing out the dungeons and stop this evil force once and for all.

| Key Features In This Issue | Alpha Demo #001:

Alpha intro quest/New User Experience
A rough-draft introduction to what’s going on in the story and some “relatively safe” practice playing the game while you get your wings under you.

All dungeon levels are procedurally generated for maximum replay value. From the time you step into the Netherealm, you will never play the exact same game twice.
Dragon Flight
Dive-bomb enemies, soar over and around obstacles, and get the birds-eye view with epic free-flight.
Breath Weapons
Sear your enemies to a crisp or blast them into oblivion with your Firebreath and Fireball weapons! Keep an eye on your Breath Meter though. running out of breath can be fatal.
Rune Magic spell casting
Combine 3 or more ETERNITY RUNES to power one of over 20,000 possible spell combinations. Memorize your spellbook, experiment carefully, and mold the game to fit your play style.
