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. Runes of Magic currently has more than 700,000 registered users worldwide and is available as a free download from the official website at: www.runesofmagic.com.

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. Similar to go-cart racing games, players can pick up bonuses, such as slow-down effects and speed boosters, or spiders webs along the track to use against their opponents. Winners of the horse race will win a pot full of Phirius tokens, which can then be used either in the game world or in the item shop.
