WHAT:
Groundbreaking episodic game producer Kuma Games announces the upcoming release of "Sumeria Lite,"a one-of-a-kind trip through ancient Iraq to protect the future’s most precious commodity. The latest episode in The DinoHunters game series asks real world players to attack or defend the ancient beer temples of Sumeria, the birthplace of beer - an icy-cold intoxicant 9 out of 10 Kuma players consider "more precious than oil."
Free to all gamers, The Dinohunters features multiplayer games fought against both real-life players and bigger-than-life dinosaurs using a variety of high-powered super weapons. In "Sumeria Lite" (The DinoHunters ep. 7) players work together to storm the temple gates, lay innovative traps or defend the temple walls against reptilian-controlled anti-beer forces! Players can join the games as Candy, Roger, Shaw or Harlan – the regular members of The DinoHunters cast, or come in as the HMO dude, Stoney (the robot cave babe) or as the new half-naked-Sumerian-reptile-man.
"KUMA entertains with a mix of TV-style storytelling and the fast-action game play our players live for," says Keith Halper, CEO of KUMA Games. "While the DinoHunters are working to save the future for beer drinking, here at KUMA we're working to save the future for television. Which is most important? Perhaps there is no answer to that question."

Beer lovers, dinosaur haters, and everyone in between!
