Leading Publisher Deepens New Hidden Object Game with Puzzles

SAN FRANCISCO - December 20, 2007 - PlayFirst, Inc., the leading publisher of casual games, today announced the launch of The Nightshift Code™, a hidden object adventure game that mixes a variety of brain bending puzzles into the gameplay. Developed by Black Hammer, the developer behind the original children's I SPY series of games, The Nightshift Code is now available for Mac or PC download at www.playfirst.com.

"At PlayFirst, we're committed to working with developers to innovate and expand the category," said Kenny Shea Dinkin, vice president and creative director, PlayFirst. "When Black Hammer came to us with an idea for a hidden object game with a sophisticated graphic novel storyline, we were thrilled to collaborate. The Nightshift Code matches Black Hammer's signature gameplay with PlayFirst's commitment to compelling storytelling. The result is a fully immersive experience where players solve and hunt their way through a world of intrigue, danger and mystery."

The Nightshift Code adventure begins when Mike, a security guard, catches the mysterious Isabel breaking into a museum in search of a precious artifact.
