SAN FRANCISCO – April 2, 2009 - Frogster America, Inc. today announced that it is adding horse racing to Runes of Magic, the Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (MMORPG) that is redefining the standard for free-to-play titles. For just a few Phirius tokens, players can take part in Wind-Runner Races, several times each day. A new trailer is now available on the official website at http://www.runesofmagic.com/en/videos,id25,mini_game_windrunner_racep.html.

The Wind-Runner Race administrator, Michelle Lang will take player registrations in Varanas, the capital of the region where the races start. As soon as eight participants have registered, the flag goes up and the exciting race begins. Treacherous traps full of magic will challenge both horse and rider.
